PermissionError Backend Docker

[nas213sim]

i'm having this problem when i launch the backend, and to clarify docker is indeed running so i don't know why

Do you typically use sudo to access docker?

Do you typically use sudo to access docker?

yes, actually ! i installed it through ubuntu package "apt" and it's in "/usr/bin/docker" which is why i have to use "sudo" i guess !

You'll need to follow these steps to run docker without sudo: https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/linux-postinstall/

Running the backend with sudo might fix it as well

@rbren it solves, thanks!

Hello, I am facing the same issue, but on mac with M2.

Differently than hqnicolas, I am using docker without sudo.

I tried to build from source and running from docker the 0.6.0, 0.6.2 and the main, but the issue is the same.

What's wrong?

Thanks, Davide.
