Error: No such container: 809ca8641517

Image exists, but not able to delete.
Trying to delete ssharma2993/2993docker and friendlyhello
Images are not running either.(FYI)
Please help. Thanks

Try

docker rmi ssharma2993/2993docker:v1

and
docker rmi friendlyhello:latest

HTH

It worked :sweat_smile:, what does “i” do here?

Remove image I guess, thanks anyway, closing the topic

The i stands for image. So you are rm’ing an image, which is what the listing you posted was showing. rm is for removing containers
