Docker container goes rouge and is impossible to kill, even with restarting the engine

[webel]

Hey,

So, this might not be the case for containers where the entrypoint.sh script is successful. In my case, the script seemed to get stuck at creating the environment. i.e.

echo "Could not find conda env: ${ENV_NAME} ... creating ..."
conda env create -f $ENV_FILE

For about 30 minutes nothing seemed to happen after creating..., so I tried to stop the script with ctrl + c. Then I tried to docker stop [container_id], then I tried to docker rm -f [container_id]... Then I tried all the kill signals; KILL, SIGHUP, HUP, 1.

Then I tried to restart the docker-engine... systemctl restart docker.service... Aaaaand somehow - all the other containers restarted, but my zombie stable diffusion was still saying it'd been up, by this time, 1h.

So I tried to remove the images it depends on. I was able to remove one, but there was a remaining one called <none>. I can't remove <none>, not with force either.

I tried docker compose down, cannot stop container: [container_id]: tried to kill container, but did not receive an exit event.

I tried to remove the volumes it depends on, doesn't work as the container is using them.

I can't restart this machine... what do I do?!

SOLVED

Phew!!! Just after posting this I scrolled down in the StackOverflow I found, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31365827/cannot-stop-or-restart-a-docker-container, had to ps aux find container and kill the f-er.

Hope it's cool I leave this? Will try and figure out why the entrypoint.sh doesn't respect the kill commands.

I finally got this running on a paperspace GPU instance, although after running docker compose up I was getting this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
sd  |   File "scripts/webui.py", line 3, in <module>
sd  |     from frontend.frontend import draw_gradio_ui
sd  |   File "/sd/frontend/frontend.py", line 3, in <module>
sd  |     from tkinter.filedialog import askopenfilename

sd  | ImportError: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
sd  | entrypoint.sh: Process is ending. Relaunching in 0.5s...

So I docker exec -it [container] bash and ran apt-get update && apt-get install python3-tk. Voila!
