[FIXED] I cant run redis on Docker

Issue

I am trying use redis on docker, so ı am using this code on cmd:

docker run -p 6379:6379 --name some-redis -d redis

and ı got this exception:

    docker: error during connect: In the default daemon configuration on Windows, the docker client must be run with elevated privileges to connect.: Post "http://%2F%2F.%2Fpipe%2Fdocker_engine/v1.24/containers/create?name=some-redis": open //./pipe/docker_engine: The system cannot find the file specified.See 'docker run --help'.

What should ı do for use redis on docker?

Solution

Please make sure the 'Docker Desktop' is running.

If not, open it and wait a moment for Docker daemon starting.

If problem still exists, try launch CMD as admin, and execute this:

"C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\DockerCli.exe" -SwitchDaemon
