不是辦法的辦法，關於docker錯誤

OS X下的docker，會出現下面錯誤：

FATA[0032] An error occurred trying to connect: Get https://192.168.59.103:2376/v1.16/version: dial tcp 192.168.59.103:2376: i/o timeout

不是辦法的辦法是：恢復初始狀態，這意味着之前下載的p_w_picpaths沒了，原來的container也沒了...

1.  boot2docker stop
    boot2docker destroy

1.  boot2docker init
    boot2docker up
    docker version

Error

docker version command complains

FATA[0032] An error occurred trying to connect: Get https://192.168.59.103:2376/v1.16/version: dial tcp 192.168.59.103:2376: i/o timeout

while docker upgrade shows that the client tne the server are of the same version (which means they should work together).

Diagnosis

The problem is because that I had created a host-only network vboxnet0before in an experiment of building a VM cluster using VirtualBox on my Mac mini, and boot2docker init would also create a boot2docker VM that uses vboxnet0. However, boot2docker VM expects that the local network vboxnet0 has IP prefix 192.168.53.xxx, whereas my vboxnet0 has another IP prefix.

Solution

The solution is simple:

1. Stop and destory boot2docker VM:

    boot2docker stop
    boot2docker destroy

2. Delete my vboxnet0 local network from VirtualBox.

3. Recreate boot2docker VM and start it:

    boot2docker init
    boot2docker up
    docker version

No space left on device

Error

When I run docker build, it complains not enough disk space.

Diagnosis

When above error happends with boot2docker, it means that the boot2docker VM, other than using has not enough disk space.

Solution

Clone the VMDK disk p_w_picpath created by boot2docker init into a VDI p_w_picpath, enlarge it, mount it to VM, and repartition it. More details can be found here.
