What?

In Linux environment it is recommended to install Docker in rootless mode. docker-py looks by default Docker at unix:///var/run/docker.sock unless DOCKER_HOME environment is specified. While, the Docker installation notes for Rootless mode clearly advise to set it, if overlooked, it leads to problem connecting to Docker:

[10:40:04.464] ERROR    Docker daemon doesn't seem to be responding. Please check it is up and running correctly before re-running the command.

Why?

  • Helps people when the issue happen.
