Hi Jim, The following commands would work for you to connect to a local geode cluster :
docker run --rm -it --name localhost --hostname localhost -p 8080:8080 -p 10334:10334 -p 40404:40404 -p 1099:1099 -p 7070:7070 apachegeode/geode:1.10.0 Start locator ========== start locator --name=myLocator --hostname-for-clients=localhost --log-level=config --J='-Dgemfire.jmx-manager-hostname-for-clients=localhost' Start server ========= start server --name=myServerOne --locators=localhost[10334] --server-port=40404 Regards, aj-vas On Sat, Oct 12, 2019 at 8:07 PM Jens Deppe <jensde...@apache.org> wrote: > Hi James, > > Could you clarify this: > >> >> When I try to use the docker image, I get: >> Exception in thread "main" >> org.apache.geode.cache.client.NoAvailableServersException >> >> > What are you doing when this happens?
