Forwarded port cannot be re-used by another container

See original GitHub issue

I experienced similar problem. I started nginx container with nerdctl run -p 8080:80 nginx . It worked as expected then I press ctr-c, container stopped. When I tried to start the container again with the same command it was not working. The container started but the port was not exported / published (I checked also with netstat).

This problem disappear after restart of the rancher desktop. Then again I was able to start the nginx and it was reachable, but again when I ctr-c it stopped working again. When I changed the Container Runtime to dockerd and used ‘docker’ instead of ‘nerdctl’ everything worked as expected.

My Info: I’m on Mac Apple M1 Pro Rancher desktop 1.0.0. Kubernetes 1.23, 1.22 Container Runtime: containerd

Re-opening, since the issue has been reported with 1.3.0 now.

I’m also wondering why I considered #1411 as a different problem; should be re-examined as well.

Another maybe not so hard workaround (like resetting kubernetes) is, just to delete stopped containers:

nerdctl container ls -a # get the container id
nerdctl container rm <CONTAINER ID>
