Container Failed to Start Error

Cause and Resolution

If you receive an error such as Failed to start containers for ..., this is usually indicative of one of the following issues:

  • The Container Command does not exist in your container. In this case, you should fix your CMD directive or Procfile to reference a command that does exist.
  • Your Image includes an ENTRYPOINT, but that ENTRYPOINT does not exist. In this case, you should fix your Image to use a valid ENTRYPOINT.

If neither is applicable to you, contact Aptible Support for assistance.
