mysql docker container not created after following instructions

Question

I'm trying to create a mysql container using the directions here to no avail. When running docker run --name some-mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=admin -d mysql:tag it says Unable to find image 'mysql:tag' locally .

Answer 1

Replace the "tag" in mysql:tag with any of these:

• 8.0.21, 8.0, 8, latest
• 5.7.31, 5.7, 5
• 5.6.49, 5.6

like:

docker run --name some-mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=admin -d mysql:latest
