Error response from daemon: Conflict. The name "mattermost-dev" is already in use by container efcbd4e6fe12

Troubleshooting

I set up an Ubuntu/DOcker droplet on DIgital Ocean and installed MatterMost, it appears to be running and yet I cannot connect to it. When I perform an nmapm there is nothing listening on port 8065.

sudo nmap -p 8065 104.236.28.253

Starting Nmap 6.47 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2015-09-06 12:01 EDT
Nmap scan report for 104.236.28.253
Host is up (0.0021s latency).
PORT STATE SERVICE
8065/tcp closed unknown

When I try and run the MatterMost container using this command:

docker run --name mattermost-dev -d --publish 8065:80 mattermost/platform

I get this result:

Error response from daemon: Conflict. The name “mattermost-dev” is already in use by container efcbd4e6fe12. You have to delete (or rename) that container to be able to reuse that name.

Did I miss a step?

Hi @madpink, it may be a container with the same name already exists on your system: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31676155/docker-error-response-from-daemon-conflict-already-in-use-by-container

Are you running the nmap command from within the container? The container will forward port 80 to 8065. You should be able to access Mattermost on port 80.

Did you find a resolution to this? I am having the same problem
