docker install fails

[jiveman]

I'm running latest OSMC, which runs raspbian so I'm sure this will apply there as well.

I kept getting errors after upgrading which made me think I broke something. Fresh install of OS and ran the latest version of this script and got the same issue.

See "systemctl status docker.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
invoke-rc.d: initscript docker, action "start" failed.
● docker.service - Docker Application Container Engine
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/docker.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

dpkg: error processing package docker-ce (--configure):

Two issues I found here.

• The socket descriptor has changed from fd:// to unix://. Fix this by editing /lib/systemd/system/docker.service
• next I think you have to run sudo systemctl disable /lib/systemd/system/docker.service then re-enable it
• next I started getting errors with iptables, it seems the latest version of iptables is incompatible.. to fix this I simply sudo ln -s $(which iptables-legacy) /usr/local/bin/iptables

It started after that.. hope this helps

Please see This Project Is Dormant.

I'm not saying this won't happen on SensorsIot/IOTstack but at least it's the active repo so you're more likely to get help there than here.

Please try to remember to close this issue.
