Running docker container : iptables: No chain/target/match by that name

Question

I\'m trying to run a container but I get the following issue :

Error response from daemon: Cannot start container b005715c40ea7d5821b15c44f5b7f902d4b39da7c83468f         


        

Answer 1

I believe the issue is within this lines:

iptables -t filter -F

iptables -t filter -X

which indeeds clear all chains. One possible solution is to launch the docker daemon after the iptables setup script. Otherwise you will need to explicitly removes chains you're interested in.
