Docker RC Beta 18 runtime errors

Docker Desktop
1

Expected behavior

Running docker-compose just works (as it did pre 18)

Actual behavior

After upgrading to beta 18 and running docker-compose up I get the following errors

ERROR: for mongodb Unknown runtime specified default
ERROR: for redis Unknown runtime specified default
ERROR: for rabbitmq Unknown runtime specified default

Here is my redis dockerfile for reference…

FROM redis:3.2.0
CMD [“redis-server”]
EXPOSE 6379

and in my docker-compose file

redis:
build: ./redis/.
ports:
- 6379:6379

Why are you building your own images instead of using the official ones available on hub.docker.com? There already are images for different versions of Mongo, Redis and RabbitMQ…

Your docler-compose.yml would look like this, without the build config:

redis:
    image: redis:3.2
mongodb:
    image: mongo:latest
...

I have a similar setup on a local projet I use daily and it still work with beta18

“Why are you building your own images instead of using the official ones available on hub.docker.com?”

There are so many things wrong with that statement. Who cares if he’s building his own containers, that’s what docker build was created to do…

FWIW - I have the same issue as the OP… I can’t start a node.js development container I was using fine yesterday. Nor can I start a uifd/ui-for-docker container that was running just fine until I upgraded…

Thanks John,

I have managed to fix my issue for the time being with the following process, not sure if it will help you.

Quit and Resart docker
Then in terminal I ran the following cleanup commands;

docker stop $(docker ps -aq) This stops all containers
docker rm $(docker ps -aq) This will remove all containers
docker rmi $(docker images -aq) This will remove all images
docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -q) This will remove all volumes

Less than ideal because it takes me a long time to rebuild my project - it’s quite large.
At least It’s working for now. :sweat_smile:

How can a question be wrong?

Look at the image definition above… I’m sorry but it is useless to define/build your own image it there is nothing custom in it. Call me stupid for not wanting to reinvent the wheel!

If you are to comment on an issue, it better be relevant…

I happen to still have the beta17 .dmg so I downgraded, cleared all my images and containers and ran a test to post valuable information to document the issue.

docker-compose.yml

version: '2'
services:
  redis:
    image: redis:3.0
  node:
    image: node
    links:
      - redis

Workaround

docker-compose up --force-recreate

There are so many things wrong with that statement.

Says who?

Glad to hear it.

Stay relevant, my friends.

Since we are only supposed to criticize ideas instead of people … I think your idea is stupid and infantile for many reasons. We can have an offline discussion why because …

I too am experiencing this issue with beta18 when attempting to restart the stock mongo from hub.

I’ve got data in my mongo instance that I want to save, so I’m disinclined to just blow the entire volume away and make it again.

I’ve got data in my mongo instance that I want to save, so I’m disinclined to just blow the entire volume away and make it again

Is the data in the container or a separate data volume container?

I assume the first since you don’t want to lose it… Then I guess your only solution is to downgrade to beta17.

If not, you can rebuild only the service container with docker-compose build mongo (assuming your mongo service alias is “mongo”)
