Registry tries to cleanup containers whose removal started already

[dinamic]

I'm faced with the following error message and I was wondering why that is.

This is probably a race condition between the --rm option passed to the container upon creation and the docker rm -f the Registry::remove() method calls. Maybe docker tries to automatically remove the container and Registry::remove() requests the same.

Is there a particular reason why the Registry is needed?

Fatal error: Uncaught Symfony\Component\Process\Exception\ProcessFailedException: The command "'docker' 'rm' '-f' 'testcontainer66959b43958a96.16963867'" failed.

Yes looks like a race condition.

The idea behind the registry was to clean up all started test containers which the user forgets to remove.

I am aware of a single way to start a container. That's the Container::run() method - it would add --rm, so docker would automatically remove the container upon stopping. Is there another entry point? 🤔
