the home assistant is in virtual environment ,tried to add homeassistant user to ducker group , tried to change the location of the docker.sock to unix:///run/docker.sock, not luck, can someone help me?

Strange, adding your user to "docker" group should have worked. You logout/login (or even reboot), before you tried?

usermod -a -G docker <user>
reboot

That should really do it

Thanks, reboot did the work
