Issues with installing TensorFlow/Python onto my Windows computer

Currently I am trying to follow the Google Deep Learning Course, and am facing the issue of installing and running TensorFlow on my Windows PC.

These are the instructions of how to install TensorFlow onto my computer. However these fail at this point: 

docker run -it b.gcr.io/tensorflow/tensorflow

with the error shown below:

enter image description here

Now after looking at this article, and trying out the line docker pull b.gcr.io/tensorflow/tensorflow, I seem to get the same error:

enter image description here

Has anyone succesfully installed Docker and TensorFlow onto their computers? Thank you for your answers. Please do not hesitate to ask me about anything that would clarify this question.

It seems that you don't have a running VM. The easiest way is to launch "Docker Quick Start Terminal". It will (create and) run a VM.

Since you want to do Udacity assignments, you can try the following command in the opened Docker Terminal:

docker run -it -p 8888:8888 -v b.gcr.io/tensorflow-udacity/assignments:0.5.0

I personally use this command:

docker run -d -p 8888:8888 -v /$(pwd)/tensorflow:/notebooks --memory=8g --name tf b.gcr.io/tensorflow-udacity/assignments:0.5.0

where:

  • --memory=8g is to increase memory
  • --name tf is to give the container a name
  • -v /$(pwd)/tensorflow:/notebooks mounts a folder from host to the container. This folder MUST be inside your windows user folder. As you can see I created a folder named tensorflow inside my windows user folder and put all the assignment notebooks in there.

To access the Jupyter notebook on your browser go to "the Virtual Machine IP":8888 which is usually 192.168.99.100:8888.

If you named the container as I did, you can use docker start tf to start it next time.

To build and run a CPU only tensorflow on a windows system that has docker installed you can 

cd tensorflow/tools/docker
docker build -t tensorflow 
docker run -it -p 8888:8888 tensorflow

That will give you a bash console with a built tensorflow
