Docker container not starting giving “OCI runtime

I have installed the docker version Docker version 17.12.0-ce, build c97c6d6
When I try to start any container it gives the following error

docker: Error response from daemon: OCI runtime create failed: unable to retrieve OCI runtime error (open /run/docker/containerd/daemon/io.containerd.runtime.v1.linux/moby/2c910acea8a0cdd4ea6e2dd87616897b4e62b0913ba5014415bd6066eaf36868/

I tried running different container but it gives the same error. I am new to docker, any help or direction will be appreciated. Thanks in advanced.

回答1:

RHEL 7.2 is no longer supported and Docker does not test their release against unsupported versions. You need to upgrade your OS, preferably to 7.4, to resolve this issue.

I've seen a few people with similar issues in the past few days that resolved this same error message by upgrading their OS. Some of the older packages no longer work with newer docker releases. One of those problems is an outdated libseccomp: https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/35906

I am able to resolve the issue by downgrading the docker version to 17.09.1-ce.

回答3:

Restart the docker service in windows using the command - "Restart-Service docker" and in Linux (centos or RHEL7) "systemctl restart docker.service" as a root user . This may solve the problem.

回答4:

I had the same issue, after modifying /etc/fstab and remounting all. A restart (of the host machine) fixed the issue.

As always there's surely something you could do to fix it without restarting, but restarting's probably just as quick even if you already knew what it was.
