      Hi Harish,

      Here we want to check docker on windows has installed properly or not.As we are facing error while installing analytics server.

      That's why we ran Docker version command.

      As it is throwing error ,we assumed docker not installed properly.

      below is the error we are getting while installing Analytics server.

      Regards,

      Raji.

      Raji,

      Your first post indicate that  you are  using  Docker version  17.06.0.CE. I second post 17.03.0.ce.  I would suggest to uninstall all the installed versions

      • Uninstall Docker Toolbox using Window's standard process for uninstalling programs through the control panel (programs and features). ...
      • remove the C:\Users\<your-user>\.docker directory. ...
      • remove the C:\Users\<your-user>\AppData\Roaming\DockerToolbox
      • Uninstall Oracle VirtualBox, which is installed as a part of the Toolbox install.

      Download  & Install the latest version of Docker.  After installation,  Run the Docker quick start terminal and than run the version command.

      Quick question, are you installing on a virtual PC or a physical machine.

      On both, you should have VT-X/AMD-v enabled in BIOS. For a virtual PC, this can be a problem.

      I had the same error with the docker_machine_validator.exe because of this.

      Hi, seems to be ok, although this depends on your hardware of course

      Virtualization needs to be enabled, to be able to run the virtual docker server.

      For me it was the reason the docker_validator.exe failed, because I was running it on a VMWare Virtual PC on ESX.
