Setup docker in wsl2
- 2 minutes read - 216 wordsInstallation
I installed Ubuntu 22.04 on my laptop following the scripts here.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ca-certificates curl gnupg
sudo install -m 0755 -d /etc/apt/keyrings
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg
sudo chmod a+r /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg
echo \
"deb [arch="$(dpkg --print-architecture)" signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu \
"$(. /etc/os-release && echo "$VERSION_CODENAME")" stable" | \
sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-buildx-plugin docker-compose-plugin
service docker startTroubleshootig
It is little different from my previous installation. This time, I run "service docker start" after installed docker, the docker process is not running and there is an error line in /var/log/docker.log
failed to start daemon: Error initializing network controller: error obtaining controller instance: unable to add return rule in DOCKER-ISOLATION-STAGE-1 chain: (iptables failed: iptables --wait -A DOCKER-ISOLATION-STAGE-1 -j RETURN: iptables v1.8.7 (nf_tables): RULE_APPEND failed (No such file or directory): rule in chain DOCKER-ISOLATION-STAGE-1 (exit status 4))further searching internet and found the solution as following.
# Using Ubuntu 22.04 or Debian 10 / 11? You need to do 1 extra step for iptables
# compatibility, you'll want to choose option (1) from the prompt to use iptables-legacy.
sudo update-alternatives --config iptables# export WSL IP address
export IP=$(ip -j addr | jq -r '.[5].addr_info[] | select( .family =="inet") |.local')
