Qian Zhang commented on MESOS-9231:
-----------------------------------
I thought this is a bug of Docker so I created an issue in Docker:
[https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/37912|https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/37912,].
However Brian suggested in that issue that we need to specify
`–type=container` to the command line of `docker inspect` so that it will only
match Docker container rather than any other object types. I think this is a
reasonable fix, and will post a patch for it soon.

> Key: MESOS-9231
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-9231
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.4.2, 1.5.1, 1.6.1
> Reporter: Qian Zhang
> Assignee: Qian Zhang
> Priority: Major
>
> In the Docker container (`src/docker/executor`), we call `docker inspect`
> right after `docker run`
> ([https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/1.6.0/src/docker/executor.cpp#L230:L242),]
> there is a small chance for `docker inspect` to return an incomplete result
> which does not contain the Docker container ID, so we will see an error like
> below:
> {code:java}
> E0830 00:09:37.303499 2428 executor.cpp:385] Failed to inspect container
> 'mesos-eaa4f455-0a2c-47ff-bf98-8bd0ad243740': Unable to create container:
> Unable to find Id in container
> {code}
> If that happens, Docker executor will not send `TASK_RUNNING` status update,
> so the task will be stuck at `TASK_STARTING`.
