Description

When I create a container with a dupe name, Docker properly responds with a 409 to let me know that it conflicts with another container. However, we're only showing "500 server error".

❯     hammer -u admin -p changeme docker container create --name crafty_turing \
      --repository-name centos --tag latest --compute-resource DockerCP --command bash
Docker container created
❯     hammer -u admin -p changeme docker container create --name crafty_turing \
      --repository-name centos --tag latest --compute-resource DockerCP --command "ping google.com" 
Could not create the container:
  Error: 500 Internal Server Error

We need to show a user friendly error.

When I tried this today, I got back

Could not create the container:
  Name has already been taken

is this issue still valid?

Adam, yea. I fixed the duplicate name issue by adding a check in the foreman code. You can probably get around this by manually creating the container from the docker CLI. Here are some other possibilities:

  • A container with name length greater than max?
  • A container with invalid options such as an invalid port?
  • Have not enough disk space

Basically the issue here is that Docker is returning an error and we're not logging it or displaying it to the user.
