how this error be resolved

Answer 1

This must be due to windows host failure on docker call when try to shut down the container

Try by restarting docker demon

sudo service docker restart

Check the status of the Docker containers:

docker ps -a

stop and remove it:

docker stop <container-id>
docker rm <container-id>

Then try by building the image again. If the problem still persists, consider upgrading to the latest version of Docker or clear docker cache or

docker system prune
