I am unable to run docker-compose up or docker-compose build --no-cache. Both exit with ERROR: Error processing tar file(archive/tar: invalid tar header).

I got myself into this situation by running

To stop and remove the containers:

docker stop $(docker ps -a -q)
docker rm $(docker ps -a -q)

To delete all the images:

docker rmi $(docker images -q)

I've tried the following:

• docker-compose ps doesn't list any containers or images.

• docker ps -a doesn't list any containers either.

• docker image list doesn't list any images.

I am running dockerd in debug mode and I'm seeing:

DEBU[0998] Calling GET /v1.22/images/codesource_buildbot/json 
ERRO[0998] Handler for GET /v1.22/images/codesource_buildbot/json returned error: No such image: codesource_buildbot

So it seems as though as I've managed to get docker into a strange state and can't get it back to a working state.

I've tried docker-compose down and that hasn't helped either.
