Docker’s error response from daemon [How to Solve]


Error Messages:

/usr/bin/docker-current: Error response from daemon: driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint mycdh (03b0b533cded5bb7c24256effceaf16bf5296b79addaf6f76dc5bd0d10d7c5ae): (iptables failed: iptables --wait -t nat -A DOCKER -p tcp -d 0/0 --dport 60010 -j DNAT --to-destination 172.17.0.2:60010 ! -i docker0: iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.
(exit status 1)).

Solution: Restart docker

systemctl restart docker

Error: failed to start containers: d5b2bd5a7bc4Reason:
The custom chain DOCKER defined at docker service startup was cleared due to centos7 firewall
The underlying firewall is using iptables for data filtering, built on top of iptables, which may conflict with Docker.
When firewalld starts or restarts, it will remove the DOCKER rules from iptables, which affects Docker’s ability to work properly.
When you are using Systemd, firewalld will start before Docker, but if you start or restart firewalld after Docker starts, you will need to restart the Docker process.

systemctl restart docker
docker start foo
