Hi!

I just received my private beta token and installed Docker for Mac. A nice icon in the menu bar tells me that Docker is running, but I’m getting exactly the same error:

I quit the Docker application and started it again.
The state isn’t “Docker is running” anymore, but stays “Docker is Starting”.

I also have VMware Fusion installed, but no VM’s are currently active…

Cheers!

Never mind! I found a hint here:

Resetting my freshly installed Docker app worked.

Cheers!

Any solution not involving resetting the installation?

My machine crashed, most probably because I had docker for OSX running with some containers, and I started a youtube video in Chrome. After a hard reboot of my machine, the docker daemon does not start.

Anything you can help with ?

Thanks

Same issue on my Mac, a reset solve the problem. The “: transfused: mount” still here, but it works.
$ docker ps
