I installed Docker on Windows 10 and it doesn’t work.

I installed Ubuntu on Virtualbox and then I installed Docker using this guide:

On Windows and Ubuntu I get the same error:

Error: No machine name(s) specified and no “default” machine exists

How do I solve my problem?
Thank you

My OS:
Ubuntu 18.04 on Virtualbox
My code on Ubuntu:

pippo@pippo-VirtualBox:~$ cd /home/gi/Scrivania/Docker-Ubuntu-18.04
pippo@pippo-VirtualBox:~/Scrivania/Docker-Ubuntu-18.04$ docker build -t apache_server:v1 .

Comando «docker-machine» non trovato, ma può essere installato con:

sudo snap install docker

An alternative solution is to call up the application from this address:
http://localhost:8088/
http://0.0.0.0:8088/
It works but only the first time. If I modify the index.html file I can’t see the updates on the browser.
When I typed:
http://192.168.99.100:8088
updates were read and displayed by docker perfectly.
this is why I want to use “docker-machine ip”.

There is another thing that I don’t understand:

1.I modify index.html
2.I write localhost: 8088 in the browser and I don’t see changes to index.html
3.I do this:

docker stop apache_server_container
docker rm apache_server_container
docker ps -a

(all empty, ok)

docker run -d --name apache_server_container -p 8088:80 apache_server:v1

(container created, ok)
I return to the browser by typing localhost: 8088 but I don’t see changes to index.html
If I recreate the container because I don’t see the updated index.html file?
Does anyone explain the reason to me?
Thank you

My code:

cd /home/myname/Scrivania/Docker-Ubuntu-18.04/01-Pagina-Statica
docker build -t apache_server:v1 .
docker run -d --name apache_server_container -p 8088:80 apache_server:v1
docker-machine ip

Dockerfile:

FROM httpd:2.4
LABEL Author="Nome Cognome"
EXPOSE 80
COPY ./htdocs/ /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/

I solved it and I also realized that I was an idiot (could you say that!).
Thank you
