VisualizaçõesHow to diagnose ECS Fargate task failing to start?
I'm trying to launch/run a Dockerfile on AWS using their ECS service. I can run my docker image locally just fine, but it's failing on the Fargate launch type. I've uploaded my Docker image to ECR, and I've created a cluster/service/task from it.
However, my cluster's task status simply reads "DEPROVISIONING (Task failed to start)", but it provides no logs or details of the output of my running image, so I have no idea what's wrong. How do I find more information and diagnose why ECS isn't able to run my image?

Please go Clusters > Tasks > Details > Containers
You could see some error message around the red rectangle in the figure "error message."

I may be late to the party, but you can check the container logs instead of the tasks'.
Go to the failed task -> Details -> Container (at the bottom) and open it. Right under details you'll see a Status reason.

Getting the reason for failure
Note: if your task runs more than one container, check the 'Status reason' of each container as per the screenshot above, as it can be different between them.

As Abhinav says, the message isn't very descriptive (and using the CLI aws ecs describe-tasks doesn't add anything more). The only possibility is to log into the host EC2 instance and read the logs there, or send those logs to CloudWatch https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/using_cloudwatch_logs.html#cwlogs_user_data
The mostly likely cause (in ECS) is that the cluster doesn't have enough resources to launch the new task. You can sometimes work out the cause from the Metrics tab, or since mid-2019 (depending on your region I guess) you can enable "CloudWatch Container Insights" from ECS Account Settings to get more detailed information about memory and CPU reservations.
