Getting docker daemon not running error

May 11, 2015 1 Comment

I am trying to get docker working on my sys
However, not able to

Steps to reproduce the issue that I am facing:

1. Installed EPEL on 6.5 RHEL
2. Installed docker-io
3. Able to run “docker” command

4. When running “docker run -i -t fedora /bin/bash” command using without root, getting below error:

   FATA[0000] Post http:///var/run/docker.sock/v1.17/containers/create:
   dial unix /var/run/docker.sock
   http:///var/run/docker.sock/v1.17/containers/create:%20dial%20unix%20/var/run/docker.sock :
   permission denied.
   Are you trying to connect to a TLS-enabled daemon without TLS?

However, with root getting diff error like below for the same command:

FATA[0000] Cannot connect to the Docker daemon. Is 'docker -d' running on this host?
