启动超过90天的Docker容器

Question

I had created a docker container image for Business Central 2 months ago. Now when I try to start the container it starts with an unhealthy status and Business Central client doesn't work.

docker start <container-id>

I checked the logs that told me that I am trying to run a container which is more than 90 days old.

Initializing...
Restarting Container
PublicDnsName unchanged
Hostname is MyBCDev
PublicDnsName is MyBCDev
You are trying to run a container which is more than 90 days old.
Microsoft recommends that you always run the latest version of our containers.
Set the environment variable ACCEPT_OUTDATED to 'Y' if you want to run this container anyway.

I googled the issue and all I can find is to use the docker run command with accept outdated parameter, but that creates a new container. Whereas I want to start the existing container.

docker run --env accept_eula=Y --memory 4G microsoft/dynamics-nav

How can I start an existing docker container that is more than 90 days old?

Update

I did the docker commit using the existing container and repository:tag. But when I ran the container (docker run) using the new image it got stuck somewhere in the middle

Answer 1

Try to set ACCEPT_OUTDATED=Y and start the container. If it doesn't worked then try this hack.

Make use of docker commit command.

docker commit container-id myimage:v1

This will create new docker image out of that stopped container with all the data and config in it.

Run a new docker container out of that image.

This new docker container will be almost same as that of stopped docker container that was 90 days old.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

您应该设置ACCEPT_OUTDATED=Y

docker run -e ACCEPT_EULA=Y -e ACCEPT_OUTDATED=Y --memory 4G microsoft/dynamics-nav
