starting container process caused "exec: \"bash\": executable file not found in $PATH": unknown

Question

e44671200b7c /# mysql -u root -p bash 

mysql: command not found

I was able to enter into the container "mariadb" using

docker exec -it e44671200b7c /bin/bash

but i couldn't and i have this now error

OCI runtime exec failed: exec failed: container_linux.go:349: starting container process caused "exec: \"bash\": executable file not found in $PATH": unknown

Solution

bash is not present in mariadb Docker image. Use docker exec -it e44671200b7c /bin/sh or simply docker exec -it e44671200b7c sh instead.

Similar issue, that's because mariadb does not have mysql binaries installed. See stackoverflow.com/questions/39901311/…. You seem new to Docker, maybe you should try to understand how a Docker image works and how to install/use packages in a Docker image, here's a good start: docs.docker.com/get-started
