Docker commands and Kitematic are failing

Docker Desktop

Expected behavior

It just works.

Actual behavior

  • docker info freezes.
  • docker ps freezes.
  • docker-compose build says image-name uses an image, skipping and stops.
  • docker-compose up says Building... and freezes.
  • kitematic opens and loads up until 99%, then freezes.

Information

:sob: PLEASE HELP! :sob:

And now I’m here, desperate for help. This is a follow-up to this previous issue, more than a month ago. I hope this time I get a reply from anyone :sweat:

Previously, as a workaround, I had to run these 4 commands on every terminal tab:

docker-machine start # start virtual machine for docker
docker-machine env  # it's helps to get environment variables
eval "$(docker-machine env default)" #set environment variables
export DOCKER_API_VERSION=1.23

Now not even that works!! I don’t know where to start. I had hoped that removing and installing everything would solve the problem but only made it worse.

The output of Diagnose & Feedback on my Mac is:

Docker for Mac: version: win-beta-v1.12.0-rc5-beta21-73-g9cd1dc2

I just did a docker factory reset before uninstalling it and the reset did the trick… :disappointed_relieved:
