Docker Not Starting

[ekim]

My brother's Unraid server is having some issues and his Docker service isn't starting. I haven't been able to get to the server itself but had him delete docker.img and disable/enable Docker to see if that would help, but no luck. 

 

I have attached his diagnostics. Anyone got anything else I could get him to try. He is running on an old server so wonder if his hardware is just a little past it.

Try that again, and don't reboot.  If it still doesn't work, then post diagnostics again  (without a reboot)

Sorry for the delay. Just managed to get him to do it. Had him reboot start and stop docker and remove docker.img through the settings.

There is barely enough RAM to maybe use this as a basic NAS. I wouldn't try dockers on it.

I don't disagree it's an absolute dog. I can probably get him to pop some more ram in it. However it has been running dockers until recently.

These suggest a flash drive problem, backup, re-do it, restore config folder.

Thanks. I've had him order 8Gb of RAM to install, so when that arrives I'll have him redo the flash drive too.

Just to close the loop on this. Had my brother upgrade his RAM. It didn't help the situation in terms of bringing docker back online. 

 

We rebuilt his USB stick and he is back up and running again. Thanks for the help.
