docker ps shows empty list
You can run the command without the -d
option.
So you have the output displayed.
It may be that the application failed to start.
docker ps
shows (running) containers. docker images
shows images.
A successfully build docker image should appear in the list which docker images
generates. But only a running container (which is an instance of an image) will appear in the list from docker ps
(use docker ps -a
to also see stopped containers). To start a container from your image, use docker run
.
For me, docker ps -a
and docker images
both returned an empty list even tho I had many docker containers running. I tried rebooting system with no luck. A quick sudo systemctl restart docker
fixed this "bug".
