Cannot kill container: : tried to kill container, but did not receive an exit event

I have running docker container, but when I want to access the app it did not respond anything. Then I tried to stop the running docker containers and restart them. Unfortunately, I got

Cannot kill container: : tried to kill container, but did not receive an exit event

After several attempts, I still got the same error message. Then I decided to restart the Docker instead of restart the container only. You can restart Docker Desktop with this following command line

killall Docker

Or simply you can turn off your desktop docker manually via the application. Then running your containers again with

docker-compose up -d

Viola! my problem solved and I can continue working~
