is the docker container of centos 6.x versions broken? No bash or shell commands are working, neither the yum package manager is working. Please can somebody help on this.
Hello,
What do you mean by “the docker container of centos 6”?
I wouldn’t be running anything on centos 6. It’s end of life and as a result doesn’t receive security updates and therefore is highly insecure.
Hello,
Running the container from dockerhub image centos:6.6
I know it is EOL, but one of my clients are still using it and I am trying to reproduce an issue. Please help if you can.
The container is not able to run anything and always exits with code 139
Turns out to be a known issue.
See section “A note about vsyscall” in Docker
You’ll have to start by running Docker on a linux host where you can enable vsyscall as per what it says there. If that doesn’t work, you’ll have to install it as a full virtual machine.
