Also tried a few browsers.  Never gets past "checking".. can i manually trigger updates in the mean time. even though i don't know they are available..

does a restart of the container trigger an update? EDIT - Could my recent enabling of wireguard (vpn) be part of the cause of this? even if it isn't "active"?

see attached diagnostics.

edit - solved it self.. works now.. not sure why.. i will setup wireguard again and see if that is what broke it and note it here if it stops working again.

 

edit - update 10.20.24 - setup wireguard again and it stopped working again. - just turning active off (and not rebooting the server didn't help)  As well as turning active off and autostart and rebooting server.. It seems to be going indefinitely stuck on checking.

Docker advanced view shows a force update option.

Thanks!  As far as i can tell none of them are grabbing updates and it says "status: Image is up to date" on each one that i try. After a few days or a week, if this continues, i would assume that at least one of the dockers will be updated at some point.   I wonder if anyone has solution to get it to successfully check for updates via the gui?

I noticed your router is your dns address.  If there's trouble there, you could try restarting it and/or temporarily assign unraid a DNS ip.

Some options to try:

208.67.220.220 

9.9.9.9

1.1.1.1

EDIT - sorry i didn't read the message correctly , i need to do this in unraid, not my router.. will try this tomorrow morning

  

Done. I changed primarty to 9.9.9.9 and secondary to 1.1.1.1 in my router.. this didn't help.  One thing that i did recently change is i setup vpn on ports 8444 and 8443 (did 2 of them to test etc) - i mapped both udp/tcp into unraid for that..

OK - did it on the unraid server and rebooted it and that isn't working.  still stuck on checking and never finishes. 

I also removed my vpn configs etc and then rebooted.. problem still exists

 

Don't know if it can help, but here's how my settings look under setting>docker.  I can't read into the logs well enough to spot your problem.

Had one last idea dawn on me.  Is your server time set correct?

Thanks.. i unplugged router for 30 and rebooted. still same issue happening. i currently have 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 as dns, will try changing that as well.

Clock appears to be correct.

Are you able to change your host access to custom networks to enabled?  I know docker uses their own network and maybe it's related

OK. i have done so, and restarted docker service (but not full system reboot) - seems to still be stuck..

I guess i should add that i was able to check plugins for updates and that worked without hanging up.  Only place i have noticed a problem so far is in the docker management page.

Have a look here and see the JorgeB post about docker image being corrupt.  I do not know if that's your problem, but maybe those links from him are worth a read. 

a little concerned about breaking something so i will wait for any other ideas before i go this route.  I kind of recall doing it years ago and only having minor fixes needed.  

Updated Diagnostics.  Although server has been rebooted many times. @JorgeB any thoughts?

Not really, you can try recreating the docker image, probably won't help, but it won't hurt.

I am heading out for one more remote job, so i created new wireguard connections, which has broken the check all updates on docker, stays on checking.. However i did have an update that was available before i enabled wireguard and that update shows up when i load the docker page still.  I rebooted the server and tried a different browser.. the single update persisted and i was able to update it.. I cannot however check for updates and it stays forever spinning on "checking."  I will do a few disabling of wireguards and see if that solves it (it didn't seem to before) .. the problem eventually just went away.. so maybe it did..
