Setup rootless-dockerd ubuntu 18.04

1 min read

Let me get straight to it bro without any preamble…

Prerequisites

Next, if it’s already installed and can be run by a regular user, please try running the command:

$ dockerd-rootless-setuptools.sh install

it will definitely error lol

easy bro to troubleshoot, from my research there is a deprecated library that doesn’t exist in ubuntu 18.04 so it has to be installed manually, the issue is here

The troubleshoot, run the command:

$ curl -o slirp4netns --fail -L https://github.com/rootless-containers/slirp4netns/releases/download/v1.1.12/slirp4netns-$(uname -m) && chmod +x slirp4netns
$ sudo cp slirp4netns /usr/bin

run this command again

$ dockerd-rootless-setuptools.sh install

done!
