Get http:///var/run/docker.sock/v1.19/info: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: no such file or directory. Are you trying to connect to a TLS-enabled daemon without TLS?
Your docker install is failing. You should look into why Docker is failing to install on your OS. This is usually because the OS is not 64 bit, or the kernel is too old, etc.
Iāve got exactly the same problem, and have been following the same tutorial. docker info provides the same information that @Fabian has mentioned.
Iām running the suggested build of Ubuntu and can confirm that Iām on a 64bit version of it. Iām not really experienced with Linux but I couldnāt see any anything that looked like an error during the install of docker. The only thing that Iām aware that I did do which was off script was to add myself to the docker group as per the installer suggestions using:
So the wget command you listed is exactly as I ran it. However looking at the images in the docs (and you referring to root) theyāre running under the root@forum user. Mine wasnāt run under root (I actually read you canāt access root on Ubuntu http://askubuntu.com/questions/91598/how-do-i-login-as-root) so Iāve been using the admin account I created ian@Ubuntu and using sudo when hitting permissions errors.
I really have no idea how you can login as root. I mean I did āssh root@mysite.comā so I guess this should be it. Still not sure why it isnāt working then. I canāt wait trying discourse out
by the way, I found out that my kernel is 2.X. so I tried to upgrade it. But it doesnt work either:
apt-get install linux-image-generic-lts-trusty
Reading package listsā¦ Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state informationā¦ Done
E: Unable to locate package linux-image-generic-lts-trusty
edit: now somehow i got a new kernel 3.18ā¦ but i keep getting errors when trying to install docker
Unfortunately, they do not reply. No support on their forum. Will there be another way to install discourse in future? Why is it, that you have to install docker etc.? Discourse is the first software with such complicated install I met, so far all I had to do were some simple clicks on install and upload via ftp
I faced that error some minutes agoā¦
After reviewing my actions I discovered that I updated the lxc-docker from 1.5 to 1.7 in the VPS with ubuntu serverā¦
So I did:
apt-get update && apt-get install lxc-docker-1.5
then sudo reboot
That removes the newest lxc-docker, that causes a conflict with the driveimage storage method and prevents the docker daemon to start correctly.
It is for sure not the cleanest solution, but is fast and safe for the moment.
In my case, it turned out to be that the docker daemon was not running, and was not started at boot time. Check your OS manual for instructions on how to start this daemon.
