Previously working docker now having errors

I have been testing docker with no issues but suddenly my connection(?) seems to have dropped.

Has anyone experienced this?

What is the fix?

                        ##         .
                  ## ## ##        ==
               ## ## ## ## ##    ===
           /"""""""""""""""""\___/ ===
      ~~~ {~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~ ~~~ ~ /  ===- ~~~
           \______ o           __/
             \    \         __/
              \____\_______/


exit status 255
docker is configured to use the default machine with IP 
For help getting started, check out the docs at https://docs.docker.com

Unexpected error getting machine url: exit status 255

I have been launching docker from the docker quickstart terminal.

Asuming you are using 64 bit Windos os, For me it was because visualization was not enabled in my bios. Enabled it and issue was resolved.

I could see “this kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detects an i686 CPU, unable to boot” error in virtual box screen

  1. restart system and go to bios
  2. security>virtualization>enable>save and exit
  3. in virtual box, setings>general>basic : check if 64 bit linux is selected

Good luck

In Mac OS, I use this command to resolve the issue

eval "$(docker-machine env default)"

Killing some processes that had things like "docker" in the name and then rebooting the terminal solver the issue for me. Unsure how I created the issue therefore tough to duplicate.
