Docker Desktop GUI issue with OSX Ventura

[jquick]

• I have tried with the latest version of Docker Desktop
• I have tried disabling enabled experimental features
• I have uploaded Diagnostics
• Diagnostics ID: E3A0E50C-B9DE-4F85-8910-BC9AD9E20A7E/20220831133424

Expected behavior

It starts up correctly and GUI is responsive.

Actual behavior

The GUI cannot connect to the backend and is none responsive. The error from the logs seems to be (over and over):

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Install Ventura Beta6 on m1 mac
2. Start Docker Desktop and try and use the GUI

[nicks]

Thanks for reporting. I know at least one docker desktop engineer has been using it regularly with the macos Ventura beta. That variable might be a red herring. DD 4.12 will be out soon and I want to double check if this persists for you in 4.12.

[zimmix]

Version 4.11.1 (84025)
Diagnostic ID: 44DFBA1F-0514-441F-8AA9-0D19F0DB8B6C/20220901030936

I am no longer able login into AWS ECR from my MacBook Air M2 since I updated to Ventura Beta 6. Login hangs for a while and finally exits with:

Error saving credentials: error storing credentials - err: exit status 1, out: Post "http://ipc/registry/credstore-updated": read unix ->backend.sock: i/o timeout (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)

The Docker Desktop reports: It looks like there is an error with Docker Desktop, restart it to fix it. Restarting doesn't fix it.

Also none of the following work:

Clean / Purge data
Reset to factory defaults
Uninstall

Also exiting Docker Desktop hangs.

Re-installation after killing all docker process, deleting the Docker app, and doing: cd ~Library && find . -iname "*docker*" 2>/dev/null | while read i; do rm -rf $i; done did not fix anything.

[jquick]

@zimmix I was seeing the same issue with unable to do any of the Troubleshooting (uninstall/purge). I ended up manually nuking using https://stackoverflow.com/a/65468254/1432060 and trying multiple versions. But everything I have tried has the same error. I wonder if you look up the docker logs in console while its running if your having the same

"http://ipc/ping": net/http: HTTP/1.x transport connection broken: malformed HTTP response

[arag0re]

same issue here

[jquick]

@nicks It looks like the new version 4.12.0 fixes this issue! 🥳 🚀

I still have a minor issue with SSO just sitting on

validating credentials...

forever until I kill Docker (web login works fine). But that is a minor issue at the moment.

[eshwen]

Same for me. The development build of 4.12.0 appears to be working fine except the "validating credentials" hang after attempting to log in

[koodeau]

For now I had Kubernetes working when first ran Docker Desktop after fresh install but it now fails to start constantly and Desktop app seems to have some previous issues from v4.11.1. At least everything else is working fine, maybe except some settings that don't use actively

[koodeau]

I suppose it's not only a Docker Desktop GUI issue here but probably something else is going in the background, I suppose it also has to do something with partial support for Apple Silicon in some parts. But I might be wrong.

[drosskopp]

I got same Problems. Where can I get the development build of 4.12.0?

[arag0re]

version 4.12 fixes the issue for me, thanks guys

[nicks]

hooray! I'm going to mark this as fixed in 4.12. There's a separate issue for the more narrow credentials issue: #6469

[Dids]

What exactly does 4.12 fix in relation to this/Ventura issues? Because I'm still seeing all of these issues, even on 4.12, where virtually every action done through the desktop/dashboard app does nothing, including restarting, resetting and shutting down Docker.

[kaorihinata]

@Dids Nothing, that I can tell. After a period of time the backend becomes unresponsive, and any action that requires communication with the backend ceases to function (like the "Sign In" button, checking for updates, etc), but even before that, checking for updates doesn't function for me. I've tried killing and restarting all Docker processes, I've tried removing Docker, and wiping all traces of it from $HOME/Library, and nothing seems to help. For the people for whom it appears to be working, I wonder if it actually is or if it only appears to be because their backend is so far gone that it's just no longer resulting in an error.

Yes restarting, stopping and all this stuff is still scuffed.

[kaorihinata]

With macOS Ventura Developer Beta 7 (which is, I think, Public Beta 5?) which just dropped yesterday, it looks like communication with the backend daemon is now fixed, and for me this finally fixed restarting, signing in, most of the stuff in the debug menu, etc. It also seems to have fixed docker login (and by extension, docker-credential-desktop) on the command line (which I believe is the cause of #6469.) Is anyone on Beta 7 still having these issues?

[LorenzoS92]

I confirm that right now the situation seems restored with Beta 7 (Public Beta 5).
No more issues with the communication with backend.
Also from console logging, no more strange errors of ipc/ping.

So, everything ok.

[Dids]

Worked sporadically for me on the latest macOS Ventura beta at first, but now Docker is refusing to even start. Just stuck starting, and terminating all Docker processes doesn't help, even though this used to help at least get it started.

Surely I'm not the only one who is still seeing issues with Docker for Mac on macOS Ventura?

I had to reinstall it completely, then it was starting.

Same as @arag0re, I have essentially wiped Docker entirely a few times for this pair of tickets, and am relatively stable for now. Unfortunately, I use Docker as little as possible (just for image building and pushing from the CLI), so I recognize that I may not be especially representative of those with more complicated use cases where you can't just wipe to solve problems.

I am having this issue in 4.12.0. here is the diagnosis ID 0DE2584C-17A4-4359-9A11-365C5C43E538/20220915081442
I did complete wipe and issue did not go away
