Docker Events Init Error with remote docker host #191

Closed maxiride closed 5 years ago

maxiride commented 5 years ago

I have a Raspberry Pi 3 running docker and docker-compose. For a while, I've been using Portainer but I wanted to change GUI and found DockStation promising.

On my remote host (the Raspberry runs into my LAN), I've enabled docker API on port 2375:

$ cat /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/options.conf
[Service]
ExecStart=
ExecStart=/usr/bin/dockerd -H unix:// -H tcp://0.0.0.0:2375

DockStation can successfully connect to the host, however, this init error is shown. On the machine I'm connecting from there is no Docker (and I don't want to install it either). Do I need to change something else on the docker host or is something else needed on my computer?

It was my understanding that with DockStaion I could manage my remote docker installation without having docker installed on the client.

Hi @Maxiride For working with remote containers you don't need to install Docker at the local machine. So, if you have a remote Docker machine just create a correct connection. image

If you can connect to your Raspberry via SSH you try to connect to Docker via SSH image

I wrongly used the normal port over the SSH connection. Thanks for help.
