- I want to run docker in Git Bash under Windows.
- If use
docker run --rm -ti -v my-vol:/myvol my_volume_test:latest
under Cmd/Powershell, all is good. - But to use
docker
under Git Bash, I need to prefix the command withwinpty
, that's where the problem comes in:
$ winpty docker run --rm -ti -v my-vol:/myvol my_volume_test:latest
C:/Program Files/Docker/Docker/resources/bin/docker.exe: Error response from daemon: create my-vol;C: "my-vol;C"
includes invalid characters for a local volume name, only "[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_.-]" are allowed. If you intended
to pass a host directory, use absolute path.
See 'C:/Program Files/Docker/Docker/resources/bin/docker.exe run --help'.
I tried to escape the ':' character, but that didn't work either:
$ winpty docker run --rm -ti -v my-vol\:/myvol my_volume_test:latest
C:/Program Files/Docker/Docker/resources/bin/docker.exe: Error response from daemon: create my-vol;C: "my-vol;C" i
ncludes invalid characters for a local volume name, only "[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_.-]" are allowed. If you intended
to pass a host directory, use absolute path.
