Cannot run the Docker container on Windows following the instructions in the main readme file #99
Description
First of all, I had to clear a smaller issue to find the container in the first place. This instruction in the readme says there is a prebuilt container ready, but then it does not mention where it is located:
There is a prebuilt container of tools available you may want to use to get started quickly. There are instructions for building the container for either Docker/Podman located in ./container/README.md.
By looking through the issues and going to the releases I managed to find a .tar.gz container in the latest release. I downloaded it and extracted the .tar file into my ibex-demo-system local cloned repository.
Next, I ran these commands from the Windows section in an administrator cmd:
cd "C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker" .\DockerCli.exe -SwitchLinuxEngine
Then, this instruction from the readme is not very clear on where to run the next commands, so i changed directories back to the ibex-demo-system directory:
In case you have a tarball of the docker image, run:
Finally, I ran this code with the name of the .tar file changed to the one from the release:
docker load -i ibex-demo-system-docker.tar
And that gave me the following error:
error during connect: in the default daemon configuration on Windows, the docker client must be run with elevated privileges to connect: Post "http://%2F%2F.%2Fpipe%2Fdocker_engine/v1.24/images/load?quiet=0": open //./pipe/docker_engine: The system cannot find the file specified.
I find it weird that it asks about elevated privileges as i am in an administrator cmd window.
