Problem
After playing around with docker containers for some time the terminated/unused ones are still hanging around your system, and prevent you from using a new container with the same name as any of the previous ones with the error:
1 |
Error response from daemon: Conflict. The name "container_name" is already in use by container 61f023f06a98. You have to remove (or rename) that container to be able to reuse that name. |
Solution
You can remove all the containers by using the following:
1 |
docker rm $(docker ps -aq) |
