The Docker run command is:

docker run --name some-mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=flurpgraSS -d mysql:5.7

Docker Desktop shows the container: enter image description here I can access the server from the CLI launched by Docker Desktop and the root account appears to be OK: enter image description here

I can't access the server using MySQL Workbench enter image description here

We might need to expose port from docker by -p parameter, otherwise, we can't access it outside.

docker run --name some-mysql -p 3306:3306 -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=Danger42! -d mysql:5.7

There is some description from Container networking

-p 3306:3306：Map TCP port 3306 in the container to port 3306 on the Docker host.

When I start the image I get this error "Error invoking remote method 'docker-start-container': Error: (HTTP code 500) server error - Ports are not available: listen tcp 0.0.0.0:3306: bind: Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted."
@nicomp The port of 3306 might be used from your host computer
There is another sample, we can change the left of port parameter ex: -p 5555:3306 we can connect the MySQL container by 5555 from your host
That was the problem. The service was already running on the desktop. Thanks!
