Can't start docker on ubuntu (16.04) #281

efugier · 2018-04-15T14:07:41Z

I am running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (up to date)
Re-installing docker does not fix the problem

Here is the list of commands / errors (happening after a fresh install, I have no containers)

1

> sudo dockerd
Error starting daemon: pid file found, ensure docker is not running or delete /var/run/docker.pid

2

> sudo rm /var/run/docker.pid
> sudo dockerd

Failed to connect to containerd: failed to dial "/var/run/docker/containerd/docker-containerd.sock": dial unix:///var/run/docker/containerd/docker-containerd.sock: timeout

> sudo kill 1639
> sudo dockerd

and from here we are back to 2...

If I restart the computer I go back to 1.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

efugier · 2018-04-15T14:34:46Z

Well apparently, once installed docker will always start on boot... so the error came from the fact that docker was already running... I won't detail here the bug chain that let me assume it was not. I am sorry.

lbagathe · 2019-01-14T10:50:28Z

I have exactly the same errors, what did you do to fix this problem?

efugier · 2019-01-15T14:17:07Z

As far as I remeber, I gave up and used a friend's computer as I only had a small thing to do. Sorry...

I know this is an old question but just in case that someone might have the same problem here is what worked for me.

Step 1:
systemctl status docker

If the docker is running you will get something like:

Hello @paulcasta ,

Is the daemon running after?

Check the status:

systemctl status docker

Is it running? If not try to restart it after:

sudo systemctl restart docker

See if it is working after.

Hope this helps.

Hi....
For me it shows as below
-- Welcome to 4Minitz in Docker--*

```
                            *
```
IF *
you launched the container *
with the -p 3100:3333 option *
THEN *
You can open 4Minitz on your *
host browser via: *
http://localhost:3100

in 4minitz_settings.json i have even changed the root_url values also but still not able to access from browser...
can anyone suggest me what to be done

wasimdf · 2021-06-26T14:34:08Z

Can anyone help me to access the link from outside server ?
Like what all changes we have to do to access from any location and browser....

Hello @wasimdf,

This kind of questions are better asked on relevant forums not on git hub where people report bugs.

I am not sure what are your configurations but from what you describe you need to enable the ipv4/6 forwarder.

Search on the web how to do that based on your version of Linux.

For example for Debian :

https://linuxhint.com/enable_ip_forwarding_ipv4_debian_linux/

Hope this helps.

@thanos1983 2 years later and your solution STILL worked for me, so thank you!

I know this is an old question but just in case that someone might have the same problem here is what worked for me.

Step 1: systemctl status docker

If the docker is running you will get something like:

● docker.service - Docker Application Container Engine

still getting the same massage :

Failure
Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

Hello @LucaErr ,

Most likely your daemon is down. Check systemctl status docker. Without much of information I would suggest to follow this documentation Post-installation steps for Linux.

I assume that you have installed correctly the packages and you have skipped by accident to enable it so on start up is not loading. Have you followed these steps Configure Docker to start on boot.

It should be fine after that.

Hope it helps.

@thanos1983 thanks for the reply, btw i resolved just with the latest version of docker... for a distraction mistake i installed a version not compatible with the latest version of rancher.
