You need to install Docker, in order to use the none driver (with the docker container runtime)

"docker": executable file not found in $PATH

I installed Docker and got a new error message, I will update the logs later.
Thank you for your support.

For more information:

• When I use this command: sudo systemctl start docker
• Output of above command: Failed to start docker.service: Unit docker.service not found.

Still problem with your install:
Failed to start docker.service: Unit docker.service not found.

[tstromberg]

Closing because a resolution was posed: docker needs a systemd service to be installed.
