Ansible AWX installation error docker-compose run --rm --service-ports task awx-manage migrate --no-input
Ansible AWX installation error Cannot have both the docker-py and docker python modules
Install Ansible AWX Tower on Ubuntu Linux
Above are few errors I had encounted while installing and setting up ansible awx, Additionally below is one more issue I face recently when tried from not root user, It is not more likely issue related to Anisble AWX tower configuration but it is more likely docker.
vjanvi@ansible-awx:~$ docker ps
Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Get http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.40/containers/json: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied
I had missed one of the step. To resolve it make sure your user account has docker group access and it is created. In the last restart your computer (Try with logoff and login if doesn't work reboot OS).
sudo groupadd docker
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
# sudo usermod -aG docker ${$USER}
reboot
Once login again try the docker commands all will look good.
vjanvi@ansible-awx:~$ docker ps
There is another solution instead of creating group you can run this command sudo chmod 666 /var/run/docker.sock.
