#Terminal #InterSystems IRIS

New to IRIS. Installed docker container as per instructions. From my system I run:

# docker exec -it iris bash

and then try to start a terminal session, which fails

irisowner@2f54ebfbc52f:~$ irissession IRIS

How do I successfully start a terminal session?

In my experience, this version of docker did not work properly with IRIS. Can you try to get on current Docker version?

Try adding a space between iris and session

Hello Michael,

John's suggestion might help. Alternatively, try "iris terminal" as I think that's the best practice.

Which version of docker are you using? I had such a problem when I started using docker 1.13 on Red Hat Linux. Things worked for me after I got on Docker 19 or 20

1.31 is the latest docker available for CentOS 7 from centos repos. I added the docker-ce repo, removed docker and reinstalled the latest docker-ce. That solved the problem. Thanks for you help!
