docker: Error response from daemon: container bb81979fe2974f59031e56e062f1b08f1ad6fdaa57ec57965c316563f384da59 encountered an error during hcsshim::System::Start: context deadline exceeded.

CodePudding user response：

Why would you want to? Unless you are running .net then run it on Linux or Unix based system it works better.

CodePudding user response：

Sure. If you are using something that does not require windows container. You can run a container on linux. I would install an instance of ubuntu or centos on vmware install docker and work with it there.

Download centos https://docs.centos.org/en-US/centos/install-guide/downloading/

Install docker https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/centos/

A side not though this is not really production grade orchestration. You may want to look at docker swarm / kubernetes / openshift for prod workloads.
