“Your Docker installation is not using a supported storage driver.”

Hey, I’m booted up and awake.

What do you want to do?

Do you want to move to a more recent version of Debian or do you want me to see if I can get your 7.5 working first?

If you want me to see if I can get your 7.5 version working; I need to know:

  • Is Docker running anything else?

The issue is that when you change the Docker storage driver in the Docker config file; all existing containers will not be accessible; so we will need to:

  • Make sure you have a full Discourse backup (always)

  • Shutdown Docker.

  • Edit the Docker config to change the storage driver.

  • Restart Docker

  • Rebuild Discourse

If your Debian kernel supports OverlayFS, this will go smoothly. If not, it will fail, but no harm done, we can revert back to devicemapper.

Let me know how you wish to proceed.

Thanks.
