Complete onboarding steps in Docker Desktop to continue

Please describe your issue or request: (tick the boxes after creating this topic):

When installing AI Workbench, the install gets stuck with this message:

Docker Desktop should have started. Complete onboarding steps in Docker Desktop to continue…

I don’t know what the “onboarding steps in Docker Desktop” are. Docker Desktop is up an running. It is using WSL. When I run docker run hello-world it downloads the image and runs it. I am not sure what else it wants.

The “Installing Docker” step gets up to about 60% for this before it fails.

When it eventually fails, it shows a screen saying:

docker install workflow failed

It also has a link with the text “View error log file”. But the link does not work (clicking on it does nothing).

Docker is working fine (both the app and on the command line.) It is just the installer that thinks it failed.

When I run AI Workbench, it just tries to re-install.

I have tried:

  • Rebooting
  • Opening Docker Desktop before I run AI Workbench
  • Double checking that the WSL option is selected in Docker Desktop
  • Running docker run hello-world

How can I get past this step?

I needed to switch to Linux containers in Docker Desktop. Once I did that the install completed.

The error message needs a bit of help…

Agreed.

Upcoming releases will heavily focus on error handling and surfacing clear and actionable information to users.

Most but not all issues can be resolved by users, but we currently do a poor job of indicating that.

We will have a release in mid September with a first pass at this new error framework.

It will not be complete and will focus only on a few aspects but we would welcome your feedback on it.
