Docker pull timeout

I plan to use Docker in a production environment, I just assume not use a beta. Still will try to see if it works.

This still seems to be happening in Docker for Mac after the GA release and after Release 1.12.0-rc4-beta20, as of August 1st. Iā€™m using version: Version 1.12.0-rc5-beta21. My networking is pretty simple (No proxy, etc); and I donā€™t think this is an issue with my host.

I filed https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues/66

Does this occur from a local repository? i.e. a repository that does not require you to go through a proxy? I havenā€™t tested that yet. At least that might for sure tell us if its a proxy issue or not.

I seem to be able to resolve the IP of my repository fine, even if I used its IP, bypassing DNS, Iā€™d get the same result.

I also have this issue. I have simple a internet setup. Home router with DD-WRT, nothing fancy. I changed my dns manually in moby
screen ~/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker/Data/com.docker.driver.amd64-linux/tty
vi /etc/resolve.conf # change to nameserver 8.8.8.8
CTRL+A CTRL+\ to quit

Not ideal since it seems this is required every time docker restartsā€¦

All - this seems to be fixed in Docker 1.12

if you get a storage driver error use dockerd -s overlay2 &

Then make sure you have your HTTP_PROXY environment variable set prior to starting the dockerd. If it is already started, stop it and start again after you set the env variable.
