docker: no matching manifest for linux/arm64/v8 while installing ArangoDB via Docker on M1 Mac

Question

When you try and install ArangoDB via Docker:

docker run -e ARANGO_ROOT_PASSWORD=password -p 8529:8529 -d --name arangodb arangodb

The following error is thrown:

Unable to find image 'arangodb:latest' locally
latest: Pulling from library/arangodb
docker: no matching manifest for linux/arm64/v8 in the manifest list entries.
See 'docker run --help'.

Answer 1

To resolve this you have to set the platform for docker to x86_64, atleast for the time being:

docker run -e ARANGO_ROOT_PASSWORD=password -p 8529:8529 -d --platform linux/x86_64/v8 --name arangodb arangodb
