Docker Engine not running in Mac M1 series - macos

Problem : I was trying to set up Docker on my Mac M1, docker engine was somehow keep running (it was in kind of hung state). When I tried running docker ps command, I used to get the error "Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?"

Solution: In Docker Desktop go to settings and try these two steps:-
Clean/purge data
Reset to Factory defaults.
Doing this helped me to fix the issue.

Is the docker daemon running? Spring-boot java project on Ubuntu

I have Ubuntu 22.04,
I have Java Spring-boot project, I run Idea, then run docker-compose.yml and get this message:
Cannot connect to the docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock.
Is the docker daemon running? (Details:[13] Permission denied)
What should I check?
You can take this perfect Tutorial: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-use-docker-on-ubuntu-22-04
The important section for you is: Step 2 — Executing the Docker Command Without Sudo (Optional)
Your Problem is that you try to use docker without sudo. You have no permission for that.

Docker on Win10 - is it possible to have multiple terminals?

I am new to Docker - installed DockerToolbox on Win10. And managed to run some basic docker examples. But I cannot seem to figure out how to access same container from multiple command line windows.
Quick online search suggested finding container ID (e.g. 2c7e29b9b666) via
docker ps
then running (I presume in new command window)
docker exec -it 2c7e29b9b666 bash
but that does not work in Win10.
Error message received is:
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
Edit: in the first window I started docker machine via:
docker-machine create --driver virtualbox tombox
and I can see 'tombox' in second window if I do:
docker-machine ls
Do I need to somehow reference 'tombox' when running docker commands in second window?

docker deamon is not work in windows

I try to run docker in bash ubuntu on windows. But every time I get this message
"Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?". If i run it in powershell - it work. Can somebody help?
Connecting to the docker deamon requires some privilidges that you don't have when starting the bash terminal.
You can however use the docker command terminal which will allow you to interact with the docker deamon.
Found the solution on this post: https://blog.jayway.com/2017/04/19/running-docker-on-bash-on-windows/
Connect Docker on WSL to Docker on Windows
Running docker against an engine on a different machine is actually quite easy, as Docker can expose a TCP endpoint which the CLI can attach to.
This TCP endpoint is turned off by default; to activate it, right-click the Docker icon in your taskbar and choose Settings, and tick the box next to “Expose daemon on tcp://localhost:2375 without TLS”.
With that done, all we need to do is instruct the CLI under Bash to connect to the engine running under Windows instead of to the non-existing engine running under Bash, like this:
$ docker -H tcp://0.0.0.0:2375 images
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
There are two ways to make this permanent – either add an alias for the above command, or better yet, export an environment variable which instructs Docker where to find the host engine:
$ echo "export DOCKER_HOST='tcp://0.0.0.0:2375'" >> ~/.bashrc
$ source ~/.bashrc
Now, running docker commands from Bash works just like they’re supposed to.
$ docker run hello-world
Hello from Docker!This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.

failing to start docker engine open //./pipe/docker_engine

I'm receiving the following error in docker on windows 10 laptop.
I've try to reinstall and restart but nothing helps.
The docker service is running OK but what i understand that i have a problem with the docker daemon (from what i read)
The whole issue started when i run the 2 commands:
net stop com.docker.service
net start com.docker.service
from there on i keep getting the error below and cannot solve it.
C:\Users\xxxx>docker images error during connect: Get
http://%2F%2F.%2Fpipe%2Fdocker_engine/v1.30/images/json: open
//./pipe/docker_engine: The system cannot find the file specified. In
the default daemon configuration on Windows, the docker client must be
run elevated to connect. This error may also indicate that the docker
daemon is not running.
anyone succeed to solve it?
docker client must be run elevated to connect
This indicates that you do not have enough permissions. Try starting the terminal as administrator.
I run Docker remotely as a non admin user.
For this the user running docker should have full permission to location where Docker is installed.
User should be part of docker_users group
docker daemon runs on port 2375 by default. Try to whitelist this port. Allow incoming connections to 2375 in Windows Firewall settings
Restart your docker daemon and Docker service.
Restart the running Docker instance[Docker for Windows] if required. You do not have to reinstall.

dockerizing an application on Mac OS X

I installed boot2docker as explained on the docker website. Here are some command runs to show that I have things installed correctly:
$$:~ kv$ boot2docker start
Waiting for VM and Docker daemon to start...
...................ooo
Started.
Writing /Users/kvantum/.boot2docker/certs/boot2docker-vm/ca.pem
Writing /Users/kvantum/.boot2docker/certs/boot2docker-vm/cert.pem
Writing /Users/kvantum/.boot2docker/certs/boot2docker-vm/key.pem
Your environment variables are already set correctly.
$$:~ kv$ docker images
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED VIRTUAL SIZE
ubuntu 14.04 b39b81afc8ca 11 days ago 188.3 MB
hello-world latest e45a5af57b00 3 weeks ago 910 B
After this, I ran the following command:
docker run -t -i ubuntu:14.04 /bin/bash
Inside the container, I installed zeromq, and started a zeromq server on port 5555 using tcp.
My questions are following:
If I exit out of the container, will it save all the work I do inside it?
I have no idea how to connect to the server running on port 5555. I read something about exposing a port, but I am not sure how to go about doing that. I did an ifconfig inside the container, and tried to connect to the server from the host like this:
$$:~ kv$ ./zmq_client tcp://container_ip:5555
This did not work. Can someone please lists the steps I need to take in order to connect to the server running within the container.
For completion sake, I am providing the list of my environment variables:

One last question I have is about code performance. So within my Mac OS X, I have a docker container running (which runs Ubuntu). If I run the application, like a zeromq based server inside the container, will it not be slower as compared to running it on Mac OS X directly. Please explain the benefits of using docker in such a scenario..
You should really do some more reading and research before turning to SO, then ask about anything you can't figure out. But:
No. If the container is "exited" you can restart it and your files will still be there, but once it is removed your files are gone. You can use docker commit to save them to an image, but the best bet is to use a Dockerfile.
docker run -p 5000:8000 image will expose port 8000 in the container as port 5000 on the host.
Yes, it will be slower due to the boot2docker VM. It would not be slower if you were running on a Linux host. The advantage is that zeromq is now running in an isolated container with all its dependencies.
