Docker error invoking a remote method

Sometimes, we may see the below error after the docker start-up.

Let’s look into some quick fixes to solve the issue.

Method 1

1. We’ve to run the below code in the command line after restarting the host.

docker ps -a

2. Then we need to find the ID of the container that cannot be started. Then run the code:

docker restart Container ID

3. If it still won’t run, we’ve to allow the Windows/Linux firewall to pass through the port. We do so to make sure the firewall isn’t blocking it.

Method 2

If the issue is with the config files, we can try below steps:

1. Firstly, start with the restarting of Docker through the command line.

docker container ls -a
docker container restart <container_id>

2. Verify whether all are running. Else, log the Containers that exited using the code:

docker container logs

3. Find the errors by searching for the error. config file missing.

4. Once we know the error, try to fix the error.

Method 3

1. Using the Port number, find the error.

netstat -ano | findstr 3306

2. After rebooting, we can consider a process is working normally if it is not interrupted on its output.

kill the process 
taskkill /pid [process id] /f

Currently, the process will not end regularly if we cannot use the cmd with administrator rights or if /f is not in the taskkill command.
