Docker-machine error "Could not find matching IP for MAC address" on Windows 10

Question

I got strange problem with docker-machine on windows 10. And I still cannot find solution.

It used to work before, but after some update of Windows 10 I began to get error "Could not find matching IP for MAC address ...". This error appears on any action with docker-machine.

For example, with docker-machine ls:

I tried to reinstall dockertools with virtual box (with different network drivers). Tried to install latest version of virtual box. Remove and recreate docker virtual machine. Remove all vitrualbox host-only networks. It all doesn't help.

Here is what I get with docker-machine -D create -d virtualbox default:

docker-machine env default:

docker-machine regenerate-certs:

Could anybody point me in the right direction? What can cause such problem?

Thanks!

I've tried method suggested by VonC.

1. Remove virtualbox and clean drivers and registry how suggested.
2. Reboot PC.
3. Install latest virtualbox (Version 5.0.18 r106667)
4. Reboot PC.
5. Set environment as suggested.

This is result.

I still get this error about IP and MAC.

Further investigation. As was suggested by VonC I've retried this with docker-machine 0.6.0. And I got other error:

As it's obviously trying to work with eth1 interface on virtual machine I've checked what's going on (all this time I could see vms created and worked in virtual box interface). This is what I see into guest VM:

As you can see eth1 interface doesn't have ip4 address specified. Can it be the cause of problem and how to fix it?

Answer 1

Open virtual box, remove docker vm. Thet start quick-start again. I have same problem too on windows.
