This will appear as SSH or ethernet con\r\nnection issues. This is\r\nrare, but if encountered, current known solution is to uninstall VirtualBox and\r\nDocker Toolbox, and then\r\nreinstall.\r\n\r\nChe Environment Variables:\r\n(REQUIRED) JAVA_HOME ==> Location of Java runtime\r\n(REQUIRED: WIN|MAC) DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALL_PATH ==> Location of Docker Toolbo\r\nx\r\n(REQUIRED: WIN|MAC) VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH ==> Location of VirtualBox\r\n(OPTIONAL) CHE_HOME ==> Directory where Che is in\r\nstalled\r\n(OPTIONAL) CHE_LOCAL_CONF_DIR ==> Directory with custom Che\r\n.properties files\r\n(OPTIONAL) CHE_LOGS_DIR ==> Directory for Che output\r\nlogs\r\n(OPTIONAL) CHE_DOCKER_MACHINE_NAME ==> (Win | Mac) Name of VM cr\r\neated by docker-machine\r\n(OPTIONAL) DOCKER_MACHINE_HOST ==> (Linux) Docker host IP -\r\nset if browser clients remote\r\n\r\nUsage:\r\nche [OPTIONS] [run | start | stop]\r\n-i, --image Launches Che within a Docker container using late\r\nst image\r\n-i:tag, --image:tag Launches Che within a Docker container using spec\r\nific image tag\r\n-p:port, --port:port Port that Che server will use for HTTP requests;\r\ndefault=8080\r\n-r:ip, --remote:ip If Che clients are not localhost, set to IP addre\r\nss of Che server\r\n-g, --registry Launch Docker registry as a container (used for w\r\ns snapshots)\r\n-m:vm, --machine:vm For Win & Mac, sets the docker-machine VM name to\r\nvm; default=default\r\n-s:client, --skip:client Do not print browser client connection informatio\r\nn\r\n-s:uid, --skip:uid Do not enforce UID=1000 for Docker\r\n-h, --help Show this help\r\n-d, --debug Use debug mode (prints command line options + app\r\nserver debug)\r\nrun Starts Che application server in current console\r\nstart Starts Che application server in new console\r\nstop Stops Che application server\r\n\r\nThe -r flag sets the DOCKER_MACHINE_HOST system environment variable.
