"docker container run" requires at least 1 argument

Question

I'm trying to create a container using a volume that I have already created, but my console shows the error

docker container run" requires at least 1 argument

This is the command I'm trying to run:

docker container run --name db -v volume-dados-do-banco:/var/lib/mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=Mypass

I have also tried this one, wih more arguments, but the same error persists:

docker container run -d --name db -p 3306:3306 -e 'ACCEPT_EULA=Y' -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=Mypass -v volume-dados-do-banco:/var/lib/mysql

Any thoughts on the reason why this is happening?

Answer 1

Problem is not with docker, you just didn't specify which image to run. Your command should include Docker image as per documentation.

docker run [OPTIONS] IMAGE[:TAG|@DIGEST] [COMMAND] [ARG...]

Example would be:

docker run -d --name db -v volume-dados-do-banco:/var/lib/mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=Mypass mysql:latest
