So I am trying to get a Forum up on my local network for testing and what not. So I am installing this on a Raspberry Pi but docker is giving me this error. (Yes, I know but its on a raspberry pi 4 but it meets the ram specs so there shouldn’t be an issue.)

Configuration file at updated successfully!

Updates successful. Rebuilding in 5 seconds.

Your Docker installation is not working correctly

See: [Troubleshoot docker installation issues](https://meta.discourse.org/t/docker-error-on-bootstrap/13657/18)

Any Ideas?  
I have uninstalled and reinstalled docker multiple times.

This could be updated, as discourse now runs fine on ARM.

It probably could be closed since the topic is now irrelevant.
