I'm very new to Docker and this is my first project.
I'm trying to create a centralized syslog server using docker container and syslog-ng.
I have modified the syslog-conf file so that it writes to a particular file location on the host machine.



For testing purposes, I am trying to re-route logs from nginx to /var/log of syslog-ng.



docker run -p 514:514 -p 601:601 –name mysyslog -d -v /Users/Desktop/syslogng/syslog-ng.conf:/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf -v /usr/local/var/log/nginx:/var/log balabit/syslog-ng:latest --no-caps



When I run this command, I'm getting the exception:
docker: invalid reference format.
See 'docker run --help'.



Please help!

          Your command has a invalid character on it (the hyphen), did you copy/paste from somewhere?



          You have –name where it should be --name.

          • Oops, my bad. I meant to write --name. --name gave the same exception: docker: invalid reference format. And I did copy/paste it from another file where I had saved some commands. Weirdly enough, when I deleted the hyphens and retyped it, it seems to work! Thank you for your response!
