Description

Although docker ps -a showed no container, I got an error saying a port was busy:

docker: Error response from daemon: driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint determined_kilby (e0dee9e44951f81c547e49aef70bc343b6d091a148cd054c8c927865f0a257b6): Error starting userland proxy: listen tcp 0.0.0.0:8787: bind: address already in use.

What solved it comes from https://stackoverflow.com/a/49657132/5005834

 sudo service docker stop
 sudo rm /var/lib/docker/network/files/local-kv.db
 sudo service docker start

Research direction

Start by reviewing the reported docker run failure and the docker ps -a, service docker, and /var/lib/docker/network/files/local-kv.db commands mentioned in the issue. The report provides no repository file, test, or acceptance criterion, so a contribution cannot yet be started or verified from the issue alone.
