Hello, somebody knows which URL or IP address needs access on Internet the rancher desktop to install and run it, I don't want the computer has totally access to the Internet, only the necessary. Thanks

Good afternoon, I recently switched from Docker Desktop to Rancher Desktop (Windows) for managing a small app stack intended for offline training. The idea is that the entire stack is running on a laptop acting as my server and I can train users even in places where internet connection is poor. All worked well with Docker Desktop. I could connect to <laptop-server-ip-address>:<port-of-my-choice> and access my application. The stack is managed using docker compose. After switching to Rancher Desktop I can connect via localhost but not via IP address from the "client" laptops. I have a suspicion that the network type is the culprit but am not experienced enough in that area to debug and verify. Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

Hello. I am using Rancher Desktop to drive devcontainer development locally with Moby. To use docker or kubernetes within the container, I have it synchronizing with the desktop's docker and kubernetes. That said Rancher Desktop is clobbering kubeconfig's set context which does not seem right and contrary to docker for mac. I want to be able to execute kubectl commands in my devcontainer to also access my remote cluster. I need Docker to be running for my devcontainer, but want the kubeconfig to be respected so that it will use the kubernetes context that has been set.

Anyone know what this is about?

Hello, I don’t use kubernetes, may I set the memory to1GB and cpu to 1 ? cause qemu-system-aarch64 is consuming 2 GB , while I only use the docker engine and docker client, for a simple app that don’t consume over 200 MB and 0.1 mc

Hello, macOS user here, just did a fresh install. Tried running a simple docker-compose file and I'm running into this issue that was fixed in nerdctl v0.21.0, but RD has v0.20.0. Is there any way for me to upgrade nerdctl?

Hi everyone! I'm trying to run the command

nerdctl run -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 -e "discovery.type=single-node" -v elast_data:/usr/share/elasticsearch/data elasticsearch:6.6.0

or

nerdctl pull elasticsearch:6.6.0

on my macOS but i am getting the following error

FATA[0001] no match for platform in manifest: not found

I believe it is something regarding the architecture definition that is not ARM or x64. I am not sure. when I try to run the command with the flag

--all-platforms

it works but it doesn't work for me

nerdctl pull elasticsearch:6.6.0 --all-platforms

Hi Rancher Desktop users. I wondered if I could get help on what’s gone wrong with my rd 1.4.1 upgrade? Following upgrade, stop and start, I’m now getting that the daemon vm isn’t allowing connections. Ie unix:///var/run/docker.sock no connection. I’ve tried switching back to factory settings, but still get daemon not running. I’ve set up for dockerd moby. My machine is intel mac. I’ve included $HOME/.rd/bin in my path.

Rancher Desktop v1.4.1 on Linux with dockerd (moby) runtime. I've just done a

docker build ...

on the Linux command line and the image was built in RD. I realised I got the tag name wrong, so I did a new

docker build ...

with the correct

-t

option and docker essentially just tagged the same Image ID with the new tag. If I do an "Images -> Delete" in RD of the first image I get this error:

Error response from daemon: conflict: unable to delete bde8ceea4fa1 (must be forced) - image is referenced in multiple repositories

Yes, the same Image ID occurs twice, but I want to delete the wrongly tagged one. It is standard for one Image ID to be tagged with different tags, and standard to be able to delete tags. I can, of cause, remove the image with

docker image rm ...

so the RD interface should be able to do the same.

Hi Rancher Desktop users. I've installed everything according to the guides on windows 10 and using nerdctl in my WSL2 Ubuntu. When trying to make a nerdctl compose I'm getting always:

error: failed to solve: failed to read dockerfile: open /tmp/buildkit-mount2585923853/Dockerfile: no such file or directory

Apparently nerdctl or the build process does not get the correct context defined in docker-compose.yml.

How can I disable the klipper-lb that's come with rancher desktop ?

I'm using Docker BuildKit so I need v2.5 so I can use docker-compose but am I missing something? should "docker compose" also show v2.5.1? On WSL it does show the same version for both. Thanks!

I tried following https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/issues/1815. But in my case there was nothing at this path.

/private/var/run/rancher-desktop-lima

Hence I ran

sudo mkdir -m 775 /private/var/run/rancher-desktop-lima

But still getting same error.

Hi, I'd like to connect to my running dockerd (moby) via a TCP port. According to Internet search, there ought to be an "Advanced" settings page, where I can configure that. However, my Rancher Desktop (1.4.1) doesn't have that, and I didn't find such an option anywhere else? Thanks!

Hi

The Dashboard of rancher desktop shows for a node its internal IP Address

apiVersion: v1
kind: Node
metadata:
  annotations:
    <http://alpha.kubernetes.io/provided-node-ip|alpha.kubernetes.io/provided-node-ip>: 192.168.205.2

Nevertheless this IP address do not correspond to the Lima VM Eth0 IP

lima-rancher-desktop:/Users/cmoullia$ ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 52:55:55:4A:B8:EC
          inet addr:192.168.5.15  Bcast:0.0.0.0  Mask:255.255.255.0

So I'm wondering where this IP is configured and if we can access it from the local machine (= macbook) ?

What's the right way to build amd64 images on rancher desktop on an M1 mac? Docker socket doesn't appear to be running.

nerdctl

works except it doesn't work with

--platform amd64

and I get binary exec format errors.

Howdy 👋 I'm interested with Traefik Hub https://hub.traefik.io/ and I gave it a try on Rancher Desktop 1.4.1 on openSUSE Leap 15.3 installing the agent went smoothly and it runs fine

$ kubectl get pods --namespace hub-agent 
NAME                           READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
traefik-hub-6977c67669-9x5lb   1/1     Running   0          19m

nothing outstanding in pod logs the agent is identified in the hub but never completes its init

Is there a way to list the VMs, access the VMs or VMs information created by rd on macos as

lima and limactl

are used ?

Hi i have installed rancher-desktop on my mac but not able to access nerdctl do i need to separately install this utility ? Please advise

hello - when I started Rancher desktop today I started receiving "Error starting Kubernetes" errors with

Error: Client network socket disconnected before secure TLS connection was established

I was on version 1.0.0 so I tried upgrading to 1.4.1 (latest) but ultimately ran into the exact same error. This error occurs in a popup after a few minutes being the in the status of "Waiting for services" in the bottom left. This is on Windows 10 - x64 based processor also with Ubuntu WSL2 VM running. Any help would be appreciated

Hi everyone, I’m trying to install rancherdesktop that without internet environment. Does anyone know how to do that?

A k8s cluster is created when we stop/start the rancher desktop. Is there a way next to stop/start it again ? To clean up an existing k8s cluster ?

Hello everyone, it seems that the desktop dashboard ui port cannot be changed from its default 9080/9443 value. Am i right ? And in case, is there an issue about this ?

So I recently switched to Rancher Desktop in the hopes of using it as a drop-in replacement for Docker Desktop for my local dev environment. One issue I just ran across though seems to be permissions on bind mount volumes. Namely, I have the following in my docker compose file:

db:
    image: mongo
    restart: always
    volumes:
      - ./data/db:/data/db

and get the following error in the container when trying to run it:

chown: changing ownership of '/data/db': Permission denied

Hello Everyone anyone know how to fix this

Hi, I'm a new user to rancher desktop moving from docker desktop. I've got a brand new clean windows 10 machine and I'm setting docker with Rancher desktop fresh for the first time. However I just seem to constantly be getting DNS issues. I see the issues if try a docker pull or if I acr login. Originally I was getting server behaving badly errors but I disabled and re-enabled WSL on my machine and did a factory reset of rancher desktop and now I seem to get a consistent timeout error. I'm on latest rancher desktop 1.41 windows 10, not running behind a vpn or proxy. PS C:\Windows\system32> docker pull hello-world Using default tag: latest Error response from daemon: Get "https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/": dial tcp: lookup registry-1.docker.io on 172.17.147.67:53: read udp 172.17.147.67:55739-&gt;172.17.147.67:53: i/o timeout

Hi Team, I am building an image it is vulnerability free if I directly pull it from repo but when I use it in my Dockerfile it somehow takes vulnerabilities from the rancher env. I have removed all the pre-existing docker images/storage/network but still somehow it gets appended ? I have reset rancher as well

i see lots of mentions of hostpath, so, uh, what gives?
