Docker push already in progress

Question

I interrupted the following command : docker push <user>/docker-whale.

If I try running it again, I get :

Error response from daemon: push <user>/docker-whale is already in progress

I understand that the upload is still running in the background and that I only interrupted the client output. However, is there a way to get it back?

Also, if it's somehow stuck, how would you restart the push operation?

maybe what applies for pull also applies for push? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29486032/how-to-stop-docker-pull/29486727#29486727 — user2915097, Jun 25 '15 at 10:59
Thanks, `sudo service docker restart` actually worked : I can push again. That answers the second part of my question :) I'm still curious though, if you can check the push status after having stopped your client output.. — Marc Perrin-Pelletier, Jun 25 '15 at 11:05

This happens because you stopped pushing before it was finished. You don't need to remove the containers; just restart boot2docker(or docker service).

Command maybe: 
    boot2docker restart (on Mac)
    service docker restart (on Linux)

After that, you can push your image again, Good Luck!

Or `docker-machine restart ` if using `docker-machine`. – tvial Jan 01 '16 at 21:44

This gets the command unstuck ... however the gcloud docker push reponame fails to pickup where it left off and blindly, sadly just starts over – Scott Stensland Mar 22 '16 at 22:39

I have the same issue on Mac, restart boot2docker and remove stopped container to fix it

boot2docker restart

docker ps -a | cut -c-12 | xargs docker rm
