I found the solution You have to create symbolic link to that directory

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/docker /usr/local/bin/docker

[ATashko]

I tried creating the symbolic link to the directory but it wasn´t worked, got an error: ln: failed to create symbolic link '/usr/local/bin/docker': No such file or directory

Can you share the exact command you ran? Did you include the sudo or run it as root user?

Run ls -lasth /usr/bin/docker and ls -lasht /usr/local/bin/docker and post the output.
