I have a custom gitlab ci that I want to compile a Golang app and build a docker image. I have decided to use alpine docker image for the gitlab runner. I can't seam to get docker started. I have tried to manually start docker and get an error ( * WARNING: docker is already starting ) and if I don't manually start the docker service I get (Fails (Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?) Any one else experience this?
This would not be a duplicate question. Gitlab runner runs the docker alpine container in root (verified by running whoami). For the sake of trying I did try usermod -aG docker $(whoami) and had the same output.
.gitlab-ci.yml
image: alpine
variables:
GO_PROJECT: linkscout
before_script:
- apk add --update go git libc-dev docker openrc
- mkdir -p ~/go/src/${GO_PROJECT}
- cp -r ${CI_PROJECT_DIR}/* ~/go/src/${GO_PROJECT}/
- cd ~/go/src/${GO_PROJECT}
- service docker start # * WARNING: docker is already starting
stages:
- compile
- build
compile:
stage: compile
script:
- go get
- go build -a
build:
stage: build
script:
- docker version # If I don't run (service docker start) I get this message: Fails (Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?)
