Temporary Error: Could not find an IP address for

[zoltan-nz]

Hi Team, thanks for your hard work.

I'm playing with minikube, minishift and docker-machine. Mainly with hyperkit driver.
Following the official instructions minikube and minishift starts without any problem. They can get proper IP numbers also, so almost everything right.

Environment: macOS Mojave 10.14.4

I just wanted to create a default docker-machine with hyperkit and I get the following error all the time, doesn't matter how I try it.

$docker-machine -D start default

I tried with and without dnsmasq also. Always get the same error.
I tried with and without IPAddress and with and without Cmdline.

This is the minikube's config.json. It works like a charm.

Hope there is some trick what I can try to launch a default docker machine. Thanks. :)

Having a similar problem: works with minikube but not with docker machine. Driving me nuts.

[zoltan-nz]

@nomasprime I haven't found any solution... Probably the best option to switch to Linux or run the whole stuff in Linux VM...

[nomasprime]

@zoltan-nz thanks for letting me know.

I've only just started playing around with this stuff so no clue and a bit concerned that this project doesn't seem to have much support.

Docker for Mac seems to work OK so I'm wondering what the difference is between the two.

[zoltan-nz]

@nomasprime you can find my notes in the following repositories' README, I played a little bit with these tools to find out which could be a smooth solution for research projects or for teaching, practicing...
