Did you know that Docker Desktop now offers support for developers subscribed to a Pro or a Team plan? Click here to learn more.

This page contains information on how to diagnose and troubleshoot Docker Desktop issues, request Docker Desktop support (Pro and Team plan users only), send logs and communicate with the Docker Desktop team, use our forums and Success Center, browse and log issues on GitHub, and find workarounds for known problems.

Docker Desktop offers support for users subscribed to a Pro or a Team plan. If you are experiencing any issues with Docker Desktop, follow the instructions in this section to send a support request to Docker Support. Before you get started, we recommend that you sign into your Docker Desktop application and your Docker Hub account. Making Docker-in-Docker builds faster with Docker layer caching. When using Docker-in-Docker, Docker downloads all layers of your image every time you create a build. Recent versions of Docker (Docker 1.13 and above) can use a pre-existing image as a cache during the docker build step. This considerably speeds up the build process. Docker Compose (herein referred to as compose) will use the Dockerfile if you add the build command to your project's docker-compose.yml. Your Docker workflow should be to build a suitable Dockerfile for each image you wish to create, then use compose to assemble the images using the build command.

Reset to factory defaults: Choose this option to reset all options onDocker Desktop to their initial state, the same as when Docker Desktop was first installed.
Uninstall: Choose this option to remove Docker Desktop from yoursystem.

Uninstall Docker Desktop from the command line

To uninstall Docker Desktop from a terminal, run: <DockerforMacPath>--uninstall. If your instance is installed in the default location, thiscommand provides a clean uninstall:

You might want to use the command-line uninstall if, for example, you find thatthe app is non-functional, and you cannot uninstall it from the menu.

Diagnose and feedback

In-app diagnostics

If you encounter problems for which you do not find solutions in thisdocumentation, on Docker Desktop issues onGitHub, or the Docker Desktop forum, we can help you troubleshootthe log data. Before reporting an issue, we recommend that you read the information provided on this page to fix some common known issues.

Note

Before you get started, we recommend that you sign into your Docker Desktop application and your Docker Hub account.

Choose > Troubleshoot.
Sign into Docker Desktop. In addition, ensure you are signed into your Docker account.
Click Get support. This opens the in-app Support page and starts collecting the diagnostics.
When the diagnostics collection process is complete, click Upload to get a Diagnostic ID.
When the diagnostics have been uploaded, Docker Desktop prints a diagnostic ID. Copy this ID.
If you have subscribed to a Pro or a Team plan, click Contact Support. This opens the Docker Desktop support form. Fill in the information required and add the ID you copied earlier to the Diagnostics ID field. Click Submit to request Docker Desktop support.
Note
You must be signed in to Docker Desktop using your Pro or Team plan credentials to access the support form. For information on what’s covered as part of Docker Desktop support, see Support.
If you are not subscribed to a Pro or a team plan, you can click Upgrade to benefit from Docker Support to upgrade your existing account. Alternatively, click Report a Bug to open a new Docker Desktop issue on GitHub. This opens Docker Desktop for Mac on GitHub in your web browser in a ‘New issue’ template. Complete the information required and ensure you add the diagnostic ID you copied earlier. Click submit new issue to create a new issue.

Diagnosing from the terminal

In some cases, it is useful to run the diagnostics yourself, for instance, ifDocker Desktop cannot start.

First, locate the com.docker.diagnose tool. If you have installed Docker Desktop in the Applications directory, then it is located at/Applications/Docker.app/Contents/MacOS/com.docker.diagnose.

To create and upload diagnostics, run:

After the diagnostics have finished, you should have the following output,containing your diagnostics ID:

The diagnostics ID (here BE9AFAAF-F68B-41D0-9D12-84760E6B8740/20190905152051) iscomposed of your user ID (BE9AFAAF-F68B-41D0-9D12-84760E6B8740) and a timestamp(20190905152051). Ensure you provide the full diagnostics ID, and not just the user ID.

To view the contents of the diagnostic file, run:

Check the logs

In addition to using the diagnose and feedback option to submit logs, you canbrowse the logs yourself.

In a terminal

To watch the live flow of Docker Desktop logs in the command line, run the following script from your favorite shell.

Alternatively, to collect the last day of logs (1d) in a file, run:

In the Console app

Macs provide a built-in log viewer, named “Console”, which you can use to checkDocker logs.

The Console lives in /Applications/Utilities; you can search for it withSpotlight Search.

To read the Docker app log messages, type docker in the Console window search bar and press Enter. Then select ANY to expand the drop-down list next to your docker search entry, and select Process.

You can use the Console Log Query to search logs, filter the results in variousways, and create reports.

Troubleshooting

Support for Apple silicon processors

At the moment, Docker Desktop is compatible with Intel processors only. You can learn more about the technical preview for Apple silicon in our docs.

Make sure certificates are set up correctly

Docker Desktop ignores certificates listed under insecure registries, and doesnot send client certificates to them. Commands like docker run that attempt topull from the registry produces error messages on the command line, for example:

As well as on the registry. For example:

For more about using client and server side certificates, seeAdding TLS certificates in the Getting Started topic.

Volume mounting requires file sharing for any project directories outside of `/Users`

If you are using mounted volumes and get runtime errors indicating anapplication file is not found, access to a volume mount is denied, or a servicecannot start, such as when using Docker Compose,you might need to enable file sharing.

Volume mounting requires shared drives for projects that live outside of the/Users directory. Go to >Preferences > Resources > File sharing and share the drive that contains the Dockerfile and volume.

Incompatible CPU detected

Docker Desktop requires a processor (CPU) that supports virtualization and, morespecifically, the Apple Hypervisorframework.Docker Desktop is only compatible with Mac systems that have a CPU that supports the Hypervisor framework. Most Macs built in 2010 and later support it,as described in the Apple Hypervisor Framework documentation about supported hardware:

Generally, machines with an Intel VT-x feature set that includes Extended PageTables (EPT) and Unrestricted Mode are supported.

To check if your Mac supports the Hypervisor framework, run the following command in a terminal window.

If your Mac supports the Hypervisor Framework, the command printskern.hv_support: 1.

If not, the command prints kern.hv_support: 0.

See also, Hypervisor FrameworkReferencein the Apple documentation, and Docker Desktop Mac system requirements.

Workarounds for common problems

If Docker Desktop fails to install or start properly on Mac:
- Make sure you quit Docker Desktop before installing a new version of theapplication ( > Quit Docker Desktop). Otherwise, you get an “application in use” error when you try tocopy the new app from the .dmg to /Applications.
- Restart your Mac to stop / discard any vestige of the daemon running fromthe previously installed version.
- Run the uninstall commands from the menu.
If docker commands aren’t working properly or as expected, you may need tounset some environment variables, to make sure you are not using the legacyDocker Machine environment in your shell or command window. Unset theDOCKER_HOST environment variable and related variables. If you use bash, use the following command: unset ${!DOCKER_*}
For the hello-world-nginx example, Docker Desktop must be running to get tothe web server on http://localhost/. Make sure that the Docker icon isdisplayed on the menu bar, and that you run the Docker commands in a shell that is connected to the Docker Desktop Engine.Otherwise, you might start the webserver container but get a “web page notavailable” error when you go to localhost.
If you see errors like Bind for 0.0.0.0:8080 failed: port is alreadyallocated or listen tcp:0.0.0.0:8080: bind: address is already in use:
- These errors are often caused by some other software on the Mac using thoseports.
- Run lsof -i tcp:8080 to discover the name and pid of the other process anddecide whether to shut the other process down, or to use a different port inyour docker app.

Known issues

IPv6 is not (yet) supported on Docker Desktop.
You might encounter errors when using docker-compose up with Docker Desktop(ValueError: Extra Data). We’ve identified this is likely related to dataand/or events being passed all at once rather than one by one, so sometimesthe data comes back as 2+ objects concatenated and causes an error.
Force-ejecting the .dmg after running Docker.app from it can cause thewhale icon to become unresponsive, Docker tasks to show as not responding inthe Activity Monitor, and for some processes to consume a large amount of CPUresources. Reboot and restart Docker to resolve these issues.
Docker does not auto-start on login even when it is enabled in > Preferences. This is related to aset of issues with Docker helper, registration, and versioning.
Docker Desktop uses the HyperKit hypervisor(https://github.com/docker/hyperkit) in macOS 10.10 Yosemite and higher. Ifyou are developing with tools that have conflicts with HyperKit, such asIntel Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager(HAXM),the current workaround is not to run them at the same time. You can pauseHyperKit by quitting Docker Desktop temporarily while you work with HAXM.This allows you to continue work with the other tools and prevent HyperKitfrom interfering.
If you are working with applications like ApacheMaven that expect settings for DOCKER_HOST andDOCKER_CERT_PATH environment variables, specify these to connect to Dockerinstances through Unix sockets. For example:
There are a number of issues with the performance of directories bind-mountedinto containers. In particular, writes of small blocks, and traversals of largedirectories are currently slow. Additionally, containers that perform largenumbers of directory operations, such as repeated scans of large directorytrees, may suffer from poor performance. Applications that behave in this wayinclude:
- rake
- ember build
- Symfony
- Magento
- Zend Framework
- PHP applications that use Composer to installdependencies in a vendor folder
As a workaround for this behavior, you can put vendor or third-party librarydirectories in Docker volumes, perform temporary file system operationsoutside of bind mounts, and use third-party tools like Unison or rsync tosynchronize between container directories and bind-mounted directories. We areactively working on performance improvements using a number of differenttechniques. To learn more, see the topic on our roadmap.
