Docker on Windows error docker pull redis fails

Question

I've installed Docker EE for Windows Server 2016 and was able to pull and run the hello-world example.

When I invoke "docker pull redis", I get the following error:

Using default tag: latest
latest: Pulling from library/redis
no matching manifest for windows/amd64 in the manifest list entries

Answer 1

I faced a similar issue, the server is not started in experimental mode.

You need to start docker server with experimental mode on windows server.

Great solution, thanks a lot!

Answer 2

When you're using docker pull redis, you're trying to pull from official redis repo which doesn't seem to have image built for your architecture. Try doing this:

docker pull winamd64/redis

Answer 3

The problem is that this was pushed to redis:latest before being ready
