Error on activating account on docker -alphanet

Question

I am having an error on running this command:

./alphanet.sh client activate account faucetWallet with /home/tezos/tz1cb1qWTU7WTXKhLJ8HgoNoJcGeLp3mXK6g.json --force

and I get:

Warning:

                 This is NOT the Tezos Mainnet.

     The node you are connecting to claims to be running on the
               Tezos Alphanet DEVELOPMENT NETWORK.
          Do NOT use your fundraiser keys on this network.
          Alphanet is a testing network, with free tokens.

Node is bootstrapped, ready for injecting operations.
Operation successfully injected in the node.
Operation hash is 'oooBJhi5pTbdBnV6dDEEgTepaPRgATuefgoTPo38GUkCZvLgRwM'
Waiting for the operation to be included...
Fatal error:
  The operation oooBJhi5pTbdBnV6dDEEgTepaPRgATuefgoTPo38GUkCZvLgRwM is outdated and may never be included in the chain.
  We recommand to use an external block explorer.

Any ideas?

I think you node hadn't sync with the alphanet full block yet.

after start your docker or if you build from source that execute this bellow command

./tezos-node run --rpc-addr 127.0.0.1:8732 --connections 10

You need to wait until the block fully sync, to verify the block execute bellow command:

./tezos-client bootstrapped

If you see the timestamp and validation then it's should be able to go now.
