Looking for docker.sock

[pmdida]

Hello Orbstack team,

I just installed Orbstack on my Mac (MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2015), macOS 12.4), was able to launch a container using docker run -p 80:80 docker/getting-started, and to access the page on locahost, but still I can't find the docker.sock file.

I saw it's usually in ~/.orb/run/docker.sock, but it's not.

Orbstack was installed on my user account that doesn't have admin privilege, an admin just typed his password at the time of installation.

This is to be able to run supabase start.

You help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

It should be at ~/.orbstack/run/docker.sock or /var/lib/docker.sock if inside a container.

Thank you. I still couldn't find the file in ~/.orbstack/run/docker.sock

There was a symlink in /var/run, but broken.

But I could fix it but just have orbstack running when running supabase start, still don't know where this socket file is but it works.
