Docker container not starting docker start

Question

I created the container with the following command:

docker run -d -p 52022:22 basickarl/docker-git-test

Here are the commands:

root@basickarl:~# docker ps
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE               COMMAND             CREATED             STATUS              PORTS               NAMES
root@basickarl:~# docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                              COMMAND             CREATED             STATUS                           PORTS               NAMES

root@basickarl:~# docker attach --sig-proxy=false e4
FATA[0000] You cannot attach to a stopped container, start it first 
root@basickarl:~# docker start e4
e4
root@basickarl:~# docker attach --sig-proxy=false e4
FATA[0000] You cannot attach to a stopped container, start it first 
root@basickarl:~#

Not much to say really, I'm expecting the container to start and stay upp. Here are logs:

root@basickarl:~# docker logs e4
root@basickarl:~#

What I need is to use Docker with MariaDb on different port /3301/ on my Ubuntu machine because I already had MySql installed and running on 3306.

To do this after half day searching did it using:

docker run -it -d -p 3301:3306 -v ~/mdbdata/mariaDb:/var/lib/mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root --name mariaDb mariadb

This pulls the image with latest MariaDb, creates container called mariaDb, and run mysql on port 3301. All data of which is located in home directory in /mdbdata/mariaDb.

To login in mysql after that can use:

mysql -u root -proot -h 127.0.0.1 -P3301

Used sources are:

You are trying to run bash  an interactive shell that requires a tty in order to operate   It doesn t really make sense to run this in  detached  mode with -d  but you can do this by adding -it to the command line  which ensures that the container has a valid tty associated with it and that stdin remains connected   docker run -it -d -p 52022 22 basickarl docker-git-test   You would more commonly run some sort of long-lived non-interactive process  like sshd  or a web server  or a database server  or a process manager like systemd or supervisor  when starting detached containers   If you are trying to run a service like sshd  you cannot simply run service ssh start   This will -- depending on the distribution you re running inside your container -- do one of two things    It will try to contact a process manager like systemd or upstart to start the service   Because there is no service manager running  this will fail  It will actually start sshd  but it will be started in the background   This means that  a  the service sshd start command exits  which means that  b  Docker considers your container to have failed  so it cleans everything up    If you want to run just ssh in a container  consider an example like this   If you want to run sshd and other processes inside the container  you will need to investigate some sort of process supervisor
