Package.json not found while running inside docker

I have a very simple website built by ExpressJS. I run Docker Quick Start terminal and go to the working directory.

This is the result of ls command

app.js  bin/  node_modules/  package.json  public/  routes/  views/

When I issue the command below, I get "No such file or directory" error:

docker run -p 8080:3000 -v $(pwd):/var/www -w "/var/www" node npm start

enter image description here

I am using Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit

What am I missing here?

Make sure that you checked mark your Windows drives in order to accessible for the Docker Engine by going to docker settings => Shared Drives.

Also define the absolute path instead of $(pwd) i.e. d:\express:/var/www. The same issue I confronted a couple weeks ago where I resolved using the above approach.
