Troubleshooting

Symptoms

When running Pipelines install, you receive the following message:

# Setting platform config

##################################################

Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

Cause

The Docker service is not running. This can be verified by running docker info.

Resolution

Restart the Docker service:

$ systemctl stop docker
$ systemctl start docker
OR
$ systemctl restart docker
OR
$ service docker restart
OR
$ service docker stop
$ service docker start

Symptoms

check_win_containers_enabled : Windows Containers must be enabled. Please install the feature, restart this machine
and run this script again.

Cause

The node does not have containers enabled.

Resolution

Enable containers for Windows. Run the following in PowerShell with elevated privileges and then restart the machine.

> Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V -All
> Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Containers -All

Symptoms

When initializing a new node, an error in the output states that node is not found. Initialization then fails.

Cause

NodeJS is installed, but misconfigured. The error most likely occurred because it was not found in the path.

Resolution

Uninstall NodeJS and allow the build node initialization to reinstall.

If NodeJS was originally installed as part of node initialization, the following commands should work.

On Ubuntu, CentOS, or RHEL
$ sudo rm -rf /usr/local/bin/node
$ sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node_modules/npm/
On Windows
> choco uninstall nodejs
