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

By Hường Hana 6:30 AM , Leave a Comment

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: enter image description here

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:

enter image description here

docker-machine env default:

enter image description here

docker-machine regenerate-certs:

enter image description here

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: enter image description here

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: enter image description here

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

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

I had this same problem. I solved it by:

1) Remove the "VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter" using the VirtualBox Manager gui. (Preferences->Network->Host-only Networks) In fact there were 2 of these; I deleted both.

2) Delete the default VM (again, using the VirtualBox Manager gui)

3) re-run the start.sh script

Further notes: I'm using Windows 7 and cygwin64. The start.sh script has issues with finding the path to vboxmanage. While solving these errors, I ran the start.sh script multiple times, which probably accounts for the strange state that VBox found itself in.

That error message comes from "Determine host-only interface dynamically, stop assuming eth1" and PR 3112 fixing issue 3108

I would try to:

  • uninstall completely VirtualBox,
  • delete any vbox* file in C:\Windows\system32\drivers\,
  • delete any vbox* folders in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services
  • reinstall virtualbox 5.0.18 and its Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack
  • use CMD only (no bash to avoid any side-effect)

Set your PATH by an senv.bat script which would include (change the path to your setup):

rem minimal path: set PATH=C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem  rem add Git to PATH set glatest=PortableGit-2.8.1-64-bit set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Personal_Unsaved\prgs\git\%glatest%\bin;C:\Personal_Unsaved\prgs\git\%glatest%\usr\bin;C:\Personal_Unsaved\prgs\git\%glatest% set TERM=msys set GIT_HOME=C:\Personal_Unsaved\prgs\git\%glatest%  rem add VirtualBox to PATH set "PATH=%PATH%;C:\Personal_Unsaved\prgs\vbox\latest"  rem add docker-machine to PATH set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Personal_Unsaved\prgs\dm\latest

Than, in that new environment, with the latest docker-machine 0.7.0, create a new machine:

docker-machine create -d virtualbox test docker-mahcine ssh test

(use ssh from docker-machine, not ssh from a git bash)

Kevin Hooke mentions below in the comments (July 2016):

I had this same error on 1.11.2 on Windows 7 after downloading and installing the latest Toolbox. Error only started after updating Toolbox.

Even after deleting the default VM in VirtualBox would get the same error when it was recreated.

I noticed in the ticket mentioned in the answer above on GitHub that it mentions VirtualBox 5.0.14, so I just updated to 5.0.24. Started up the Quickstart prompt, it recreated the default vm, and now no issue.

If different IP (from previous run) is assigned on restart, docker-machine shows connectivity issues with the VM.
One approach that worked for me is to restart it in a way so that it gets same IP at restart.
E.g. if 192.168.99.102 (third in seq 100, 101, 102) was assigned at creation, then start any two other VMs before this docker machine, so that this one gets 102.

I am maintaining the commands, which had been handy in running docker in my initial days for reference:
Handy commands on docker-machine, docker and docker-compose for starters.

One day I woke up, and Docker didn't work with mentioned "Could not find matching IP for MAC address ..."

What helped me it was to:

  • uninstal Docker Toolbox
  • uninstall VirtualBox
  • remove folder C:\Users\user_name\.docker
  • remove folder C:\Users\user_name\.VirtualBox
  • install Docker Toolbox again
