Hi Everyone,

AWX Version: 14.1 & 15.0 (Tried both, both fail with same error)
Performing installation as: Tried with root and awx user; both fail with same error

TASK [local_docker : Start the containers] **************************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Error connecting: Error while fetching server API version: ('Connection aborted.', FileNotFoundError(2, 'No such file or directory'))"}

Appreciate any help over this.

Hi JK

Is the docker daemon running? Also have you added the user to the docker group?

Regards
Phil.

Thanks for replying, Phil. The issue was rectified, but you touched the exact issue. The docker engine was down and installation is complete once it was up.

Appreciate your help, Phil.
