How do I run an ubuntu container on windows?

问题:

I'm new to Docker and following through the Get started documentation, https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/#explore-the-application-and-run-examples.

When I run 'docker run -it ubuntu bash' I get the following error:

Unable to find image 'ubuntu:latest' locally latest: Pulling from library/ubuntu C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\Resources\bin\docker.exe: no matching manifest for windows/amd64 in the manifest list entries. See 'C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\Resources\bin\docker.exe run --help'.

Here's additional docker information:

docker version

I'm a little confused why the OS/Arch version shows windows/amd64 while Architecture under info shows x86_64.

Any help with the error message would be great.

回答1:

Your issue is that your are using docker in Windows container mode and trying to pull a ubuntu image which is linux container image. You can't do that. You can run either windows containers or you can run linux containers.

You can switch to Linux container mode by right clicking on the docker tray icon as shown in below image

Also windows/amd64 and x86_64 is both indicate 64bit OS and nothing else
