Issue with Docker service after last update

Regular Pleskian
After last update Docker service stopped working.
No containers, nothing. Removed docker extension from extension catalog and now cannot install.

Hi bulent,

Could you please provide an output from the next commands:
- plesk version
- systemctl status docker.service
- journalctl -u docker.service

First of all, need to understand why your docker service can't start (systemctl start docker).
 
Hi, and thanks for the quick response. Yesterday everything was working correctly.

Hmmm, it doesn't help.

Process: 12957 ExecStart=/usr/bin/dockerd -H unix:// (code=killed, signal=TERM)
Click to expand...

Could you please execute "dockerd" with debug-flag: `/usr/bin/dockerd -D -H unix://` and check the output; to stop executing, use "<Ctrl+С>"
 
In docker section I have this:
Warning: Local Docker node is missing. Refer to this KB article to resolve this issue.
The ability to work with remote nodes is available only in the paid version of the extension. You can buy the extension here.
 
Same problem here this morning.

Tried to uninstall from cli plesk-installer. Can't properly uninstall.
Also same error as bulent.

Thank you.
 
Unfortunately, I can't fast help here because can't reproduce the issue. I suggest you contact Plesk Support Team.
 
Hello,

We have the same problem on 3 differents servers after last update made this morning.
Plesk Onyx 17.8.11 - n°22.

All docker instances are unavailable...

Help !! The problem comes from the last update plesk !
 
Hi @Erwan
No solution.
Waiting Plesk team to say somthing.
Week or two ago had different issue with docker and firewall and now with docker.

It seems like will be good idea instead of running plesk on dedi server, to run it inside virtual container. It will be much easier to make snapshot backup restores.
 
Yes...
Question: is anyone that don't have problem with Plesk Docker can say if the permissions from this files are the same:

Directory: /var/run/
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 10 nov. 14:15 docker.pid
srw-rw---- 1 root docker 0 10 nov. 14:15 docker.sock
 
All my settings are default, including update settings. I don't know whether there was kernel update.
 
No one to help us at Plesk? The 3 servers for which we made the udate to Plesk Onyx 17.8.11 - # 22 are impacted!
