'failed to start daemon: pid file found, ensure docker is not running or delete /var/run/docker.pid
I start docker
sudo service docker start
then I try to run dockerd
sudo dockerd
it shows the following error:
INFO[2021-11-21T19:25:52.804962676+05:30] Starting up
failed to start daemon: pid file found, ensure docker is not running or delete /var/run/docker.pid
Solution 1:[1]
it works for me:
sudo chmod 666 /var/run/docker.sock
Solution 2:[2]
Delete the PID file. Kill the running docker service and start it again.
ps -ef | grep docker
kill -9 <PIDs>
sudo systemctl start docker.service
