Trying to get n8n up and running with Docker Desktop for Windows. Tried using the quickstart code, but getting the error:
docker: invalid reference format.
See 'docker run --help'.
Can’t understand what I’m doing wrong. Tried pulling down the latest version of n8n, seemed to do so successfully, though I don’t know where it’s pulling to. Any help/guidance for a newby?
Hey Jon, I did not. Still beginning my journey into the world of code/programming. Once I’ve downloaded the official image from Docker (or pulled it using CMD), where would I find it?
You can put whatever you want really just make sure it is a local path, I suspect the issue is where ~ is a shortcut on Mac / Linux systems for the current users home directory so assuming your windows logon name is BRPW the command below “should” just work.
I suspect there is probably a windows version of ~ maybe something like %HOME% or $HOME but it might be easier to just manually set a path and see what happens.
Try using your normal user folder but lowercase it all so maybe c:\users\ben\.n8n if that doesn’t do it I can set up a Windows virtual machine and give it a quick bash and see what happens.
