Hi Team,

I want to run tctl commands from docker container temporal-admin-tools:1.17.1 in windows 10.
I have below images of temporal running in my system:

From temporal web I am able to see everything like describe or query for my RUNNING workflow: myworkflow-lifecycle

But when I try to run tctl command for example describe as below I get NotFound error.

docker exec temporal-admin-tools tctl wf describe -w myworkflow-lifecycle
Error: Describe workflow execution failed
Error Details: rpc error: code = NotFound desc = sql: no rows in result set
(‘export TEMPORAL_CLI_SHOW_STACKS=1’ to see stack traces)

or if I run tctl query then also similar error as below:

docker exec temporal-admin-tools tctl wf query --qt myQuery -w myworkflow-lifecycle -r aae60b68-4c35-4ff6-9008-fe651f523af3
Error: Query workflow failed.
Error Details: rpc error: code = NotFound desc = Workflow executionsRow not found. WorkflowId: myworkflow-lifecycle, RunId: aae60b68-4c35-4ff6-9008-fe651f523af3
(‘export TEMPORAL_CLI_SHOW_STACKS=1’ to see stack traces)

I am not sure what am I missing?
probably I need to set something so that admin-tools can query postgres via tctl.

Could someone help?

Found what was I missing I was running tctl commands against the temporal namespace default which does not have any workflows.

I had to give --ns mynamespace in tctl commands to see the results.

for example below command worked:
docker exec temporal-admin-tools tctl --ns mynamespace wf describe -w myworkflow-lifecycle
