Problem running container on Windows 10 home edition after hello world

I can download mssql image with docker run command as follows:
docker@default:~ docker run -e "ACCEPT_EULA=Y" -e "SA_PASSWORD=Pwd12345!" -p 11433:1433 -d mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2017-latest Unable to find image 'mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2017-latest' locally 2017-latest: Pulling from mssql/server 59ab41dd721a: Pull complete 57da90bec92c: Pull complete 06fe57530625: Pull complete 5a6315cba1ff: Pull complete 739f58768b3f: Pull complete 3a58fde0fc61: Pull complete 89b44069090d: Pull complete 05f6e689e8fa: Pull complete bcf981cef1a8: Pull complete Digest: sha256:eb1fc9a73c9c4662d3b468b635b9be34a48724100294ac20348ac0e93c55228d Status: Downloaded newer image for mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2017-latest 7269b0a42b74c5a4d9038e2c40fe86e03ae1b327ff5f6422fd9300cedfe68919 docker@default:~ docker ps -a

But when I try to run it, I can not. I have tried it from the Power Shell as well as a ssh session into the Docker VM. What to do?

This container exits immediately. You have to look into the log for the reason. Maybe you could start it in the foreground (without -d flag) to get the infos directly.

Hi tekki
Where are the logs please? I was able to start the container, but I can not connect to it. My setup is on a Windows 10 home edition with docker-machine, and Virtual Box. I used ā€œdocker start -aā€ to start the image. After that it just starts with docker run command as follows: "docker run -e ā€œACCEPT_EULA=Yā€ -e ā€œSA_PASSWORD=Removedā€ -p 11433:1433 -d mcr.microsoft.com/mssql/server:2017-latest " Here is the output of docker ps -a:
PS C:\Windows\system32> docker ps

I see port 11433 open when I look at netstat.

Thanks

I installed Docker using Chocolaty package manager. I sshed into the VM but I do not see any directory hierarchy. Here are some of the directories in windows which contain my Docker files:
PS C:\programdata\chocolatey> cd .\lib
PS C:\programdata\chocolatey\lib> ls

Directory: C:\programdata\chocolatey\lib

I connected successfully.
Thank you so much.
