I am getting following error and couldn't find any solution.

Tried to clean up images, containers via following docker commands nothing help:

docker system prune -af
docker builder prune
docker rm $(docker ps -a -q)
docker rmi $(docker images -a -q)

# Tried to pull images without caches also failed
docker build --pull --no-cache -t "my-app" .

CodePudding user response：

To fix this;

Close Docker
Remove containers manually

rm -rf ~/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker

Start docker and it will magically work!

CodePudding user response：

the fix is to edit /etc/docker/daemon.json file and add below content to it:

{ "storage-driver": "devicemapper" }

Reload the systemctl daemon:

systemctl daemon-reload

And restart docker service:

systemctl restart docker
