Installing docker-compose killed docker #6099
Comments
I removed completely docker and docker-compose, and re-installed only docker, still dead. |
Did you install docker-compose from the Ubuntu repository? (ie, a version that's packaged by Ubuntu?) I wonder if doing so also resulted in the Ubuntu packaged version of Docker to be installed (given that that would be a conflicting package, possibly that resulted in your existing version of Docker to be uninstalled) |
Closing, but please update if you're still seeing issues. As @thaJeztah pointed out, distro packages can cause some problems - refer to our documentation for the supported install options: https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/ |
fwiw i just ran into this:
My theory atm: Solution: i'm not sure how this happens, it might be related to the still existing SysV init-files for the package, and how they get handled in conjunction with 18.04 and possibly 16.04 it's all pretty weird. |
same thing with me too ,installed docker-compose and docker daemon wont start |
@whysthatso Just ran into this issue, could you please describe the full solution step by step? Do I need to uninstall docker-compose and stuff and then reinstall docker or what? |
as far as i remember:
or it could be:
but yeah, sorry, i realized i should have contextualized my comment a bit better
try both, can't really mess anything up here |
@whysthatso Thanks, I actually solved it. The main point is to make sure to isntall Docker CE and Compose from appropriate repositories, not from distro's repos |
I have same problem. Installing docker-compose killed running docker daemon. How sad there is no standard repo for Ubuntu for both docker and docker-compose. I found the following link that explains the two alternative universes for docker on Debian (docker.io vs docker-ce): https://www.collabora.com/news-and-blog/blog/2018/07/04/docker-io-debian-package-back-to-life/ I lean toward installing docker-ce as opposed to docker.io, hence follow these two guides: https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/ubuntu/ (includes uninstall docker.io package) |
Oooooof I just ran into this too. Tough that installing |
Yes, problem still present, service restarting too quickly :
|
Remove docker-compose:
Check the docker engine again - it should work (restart if needed):
Add docker repository and install |
Description of the issue
I've installed a fresh Ubuntu 18.04, then docker from repos, then a few containers. Everything was doing fine.
I've then installed docker-composer from repos : docker is now dead, I can't start it, even after rebooting.
Context information (for bug reports)
Everything was done as root, so I don't think it's a permission problem.
I've done some googling but didn't find any solution.
Is there a way to get thing back online without re-installing everything?
Thanks
