    you need to run this in your HOST terminal not the container:

    sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

    if you check the container logs you will see something like this:

    max virtual memory areas vm.max_map_count [65530] is too low, increase to at least [262144]

    please note also the above command will be reseted after rebooting your machine, you need to set the value in /etc/sysctl.conf to make it permenant.

    Using the Docker images in production or local

    The following requirements and recommendations apply when running Elasticsearch in Docker in production.

    Set vm.max_map_count to at least 262144
    The vm.max_map_count kernel setting must be set to at least 262144 for production use.

    How you set vm.max_map_count depends on your platform.

    Linux

    To view the current value for the vm.max_map_count setting, run:

    grep vm.max_map_count /etc/sysctl.conf
vm.max_map_count=262144

    To apply the setting on a live system, run:

    sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

    To permanently change the value for the vm.max_map_count setting, update the value in /etc/sysctl.conf.

    macOS with Docker for Mac

    The vm.max_map_count setting must be set within the xhyve virtual machine:

    From the command line, run:

    screen ~/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker/Data/vms/0/tty
    Press enter and use sysctl to configure vm.max_map_count:

    sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

    To exit the screen session, type Ctrl a d.

    Windows and macOS with Docker

    The vm.max_map_count setting must be set via docker-machine:

    docker-machine ssh
sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

    **Windows with Docker Desktop WSL 2 **

    The vm.max_map_count setting must be set in the docker-desktop container:

    wsl -d docker-desktop
sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

    This made it for me:

    wsl -d docker-desktop
sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

    On powershell & WSL 1
