Visual Studio 2017 stopped working with dock

In Visual Studio 2017 I am working on a project with three main dotnet projects. He built and launched containers using docker-compose as his starter project. Now it throws an error that it cannot find a container starting with the given name. In the Output window, Show Output From: selected docker

displays the combined docker-compose.yml files.

It looks like it doesn't create containers, so it can't find the container it looks for by name. After seeing this, I ran all the Docker commands in PowerShell and it built the images and started the containers right away. With containers installed, Visual Studio started but gave a different error.

I am wondering why Visual Studio will no longer create containers.

Note. I've had problems in the past when spinning up containers with Docker Cli: Visual Studio threw exceptions, but I cleaned up Docker working with containers, network, volume and images ...

Thank you in advance for your help. I love Docker, but there are some frustrations using VS tools so far ...

Make sure in Build> Configuration Manager you have the Docker project set to build in debug mode - this disconnect was not caused by this issue for me and repeated ticking, it turned out to be the solution.

Do you run the project by clicking the "Docker" button at the top of the VS2017 window? This should build and run the correct container.

In my case, I included the Resharper build, which confused Visual Studio. Switching to a regular Visual Studio build in Resharper → Options → Tools → Build

solved the problem for me.

It also sometimes helps to right-click an item docker-compose

in Visual Studio and select Clear. This causes Visual Studio to call docker-compose kill

which gives you a new status. Note that the output from this process appears in the Build window, not the Docker window.
