Please need an immediate assistance on the above issue

zylxjtu · 2023-06-06T22:09:39Z

Can you please try with workdir c:\\app (escape the backslash) as specified here? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/windowscontainers/manage-docker/manage-windows-dockerfile#considerations-for-using-workdir-with-windows

Hithesh0899 · 2023-06-07T02:20:45Z

Thanks, sure let me check and update

I tried this too, but it is giving the same error. Please help me.

ntrappe-msft · 2023-06-07T23:43:36Z

Hi. I tried to reproduce your error but the build was successful for me. Could you provide us with some more info?

Task 1: Check which version of the Windows Server Core 2019 image you're using.

Get the image ID: docker images mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:ltsc2019
Paste the output of docker inspect <image ID you just got>

Task 2: Give us more information on your Docker system.

Paste the output of docker version

Task 3: Check how much memory is available for Docker.

Make sure Docker Desktop is open in the background and that docker is running
In a PowerShell window, run docker info --format '{{.MemTotal}}'
Paste whatever number (e.g. 8588828672) you see
Or, depending on your version of Docker Desktop, tell us what you see under memory: Docker Desktop > Settings > Resources > Memory

ntrappe-msft

Thanks a lot for the steps you have shared, apology for the late reply.
Issue got resolved, after i have selected an option - set to factory defaults.

Root cause: I have unknowingly deleted some data in C:Programdata/docker/windowsfilter - caused this issue,
after setting to factory defaults, it removed all the junk and old files from C drive and able to create image.

Thanks a lot for reply @ntrappe-msft

Hithesh0899 · 2023-06-12T06:22:15Z

If anything i will reopen the issue.

ntrappe-msft · 2023-06-12T23:35:00Z

Ok! Thanks for letting us know and I'm happy your issue was resolved. I'll make a note of the error and root cause you identified to help us in the future.

Hithesh0899 · 2023-06-21T08:28:24Z

This is new issue which i need to address in the same thread. @ntrappe-msft
Docker for Windows: No permissions over folders inside C:\ProgramData\Docker
I dont have access inside this folder, even if I go into the folder again every file and folder needs to have admin access.
Please need your help how disable the admin access to above path C:\ProgramData\Docker
Kindly need an solution

ntrappe-msft · 2023-06-21T18:17:38Z

Let's check what permissions you currently have for the files in the Docker folder. Can you give me the output of the following command?

(This is for Command Prompt but I can give you a Powershell equivalent too).

icacls "C:\Program Files\Docker\*"

You should get something like:

C:\Program Files\Docker\licenses.txt 
    NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(I)(F)
    BUILTIN\Administrators:(I)(F)
    BUILTIN\Users:(I)(RX)
    APPLICATION PACKAGE AUTHORITY\ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES:(I)(RX)
    APPLICATION PACKAGE AUTHORITY\ALL RESTRICTED APPLICATION PACKAGES:(I)(RX)
C:\Program Files\Docker\metadata.json 
. . . 
etc.

Hithesh0899 · 2023-06-21T18:52:33Z

As of now i am in company - but my admin is trying to give permissions.
but we tried a lot it is not happening.
Please need to understand the root cause.
currently the following is the status of folder permission:

ntrappe-msft · 2023-06-22T22:07:02Z

Can you:

Open up File Explorer and navigate to the C:\ProgramData folder?
Write-click on the Docker folder to open up folder properties.
In the General tab make sure you have "Read-only" access checked.
Go to the Security tab and click Advanced.
Under Permissions click Continue.
What access do you see? Full control?

Hithesh0899 · 2023-06-23T14:46:32Z

Sure, I will check this things and will update you on this - regarding monday. Apologies for delay.

This may not solve the specific issue you had but it did resolve it when I encountered it.

For reference, I tried to start up a container from a Windows Server Core LTSC 2022 image.

> docker run -it mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:ltsc2022 powershell

This failed and I received the error: Error response from daemon: hcsshim::CreateScratchLayer failed in Win32: The system cannot find the path specified. (0x3).

The image I was using was decently old; I'd pulled it 5 months ago and hadn't updated it or received any of the new security patches.

> docker images

REPOSITORY                            TAG       IMAGE ID      CREATED
mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore  ltsc2022  29e69ab16e91  5 months ago

I pulled the newest image, ran the command to start up a container again, and everything succeeded.

> docker pull mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:ltsc2022
Status: Downloaded newer image for mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:ltsc2022

> docker run -it mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:ltsc2022 powershell

Hope this helps anyone else!
