same problem here, I updated docker this week and I haven't been able to run acelink since then. I have reinstalled everything but same problem, is there a specific docker version that we should use?

Thanks a lot for your work, I have been using this for more than a year.

I think I can reproduce, are you also getting this repeatedly when following instructions from https://github.com/blaise-io/acelink#view-ace-link-logs?

default	19:21:27.694092+0200	Ace Link	Running command: docker ps
default	19:21:27.807132+0200	Ace Link	StandardOut:
default	19:21:27.807190+0200	Ace Link	standardError: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

If you're running into this issue, please confirm that Ace.Link.2.0.5-new-sock.dmg.zip fixes the issue.

If the above doesn't work, for the time being, try sudo ln -sf "$HOME/.docker/run/docker.sock" /var/run/docker.sock.

Can confirm, that worked for me with up-to-date Docker. Thx!

it worked for me too, now I'm worried to update docker again haha should it work?

A million thanks!!

So it turns out that docker for macOS is not like the one for Linux as mentioned here and you also need Docker Desktop (which is not needed in Linux for running the daemon and using and running docker images). That's why ace-link was not working for me, in case this is helpful for anybody else.

Great work with this Ace Stream implementation! Much better than the one I used to deal with using an installed version of Wine and the actual Windows software...

I have verified Docker works on an M1 with Docker Desktop. If people still have issues with Apple Silicon, please create a new issue and post logs.
