Git Lab CE on Windows

I am trying to run Git Lab ce on docker on windows, I can’t seem to launch the local host. When I try to configure the port command “docker run -d -p 80:80 docker/git_lab_ce” I get the msg “Unable to find image ‘docker/git_lab_ce:latest’ locally
docker: Error response from daemon: pull access denied for docker/git_lab_ce, repository does not exist or may require ‘docker login’: denied: requested access to the resource is denied.
See ‘docker run --help’.
Where is the default location gitlab is stored on windows?

Looks like a typo:

gitlab/gitlab-ce:latest

not git_lab_ce - at least this is what I see here in the docs: GitLab Docker images | GitLab

Hi @brandon-omni , welcome to the GitLab Community forum!

GitLab is developed for Linux-based operating systems. It does not run on Microsoft Windows (even inside a docker container).

To test self-managed GitLab out, you’ll want to install it on a machine or virtual machine running Linux operating system. If you don’t have access to a Linux machine, you might consider using free credits from a cloud provider to spin up a VM or running GitLab inside a Linux virtual machine. For best performance, make sure that the machine has resources available to meet the hardware requirements.

The command to install GitLab CE via docker on a linux machine with docker installed can be found here: GitLab Docker images | GitLab
