Docker.sock permission debian trixie

Ask a Question!

Hello, I have a problem after updating from Debian Bookworm to Debian Trixie. I had several containers running under Bookworm, including Portainer. However, after the update to debian trixie, I no longer have access to docker.sock, which means Portainer cannot access docker.sock to manage the other running containers. Of course, I passed docker.sock to Portainer -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock. Now, when I try to add the Docker environment to Portainer via the socket, I get the error message “Permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Head “http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/_ping”: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: socket: permission denied.”

root@pve:~# ls -ln /var/run/docker.sock
srw-rw---- 1 0 997 0 Sep 17 08:53 /var/run/docker.sock

Do you have any Ideas?

@netsrot303 Are you deploying Portainer via sudo? This is a permission related issue on your system, not sure what changes are in the new Debian upgrade but could be worth asking on their forums as well

I deploy portainer as root user. i also asked in docker forum.
