Same problem. Fresh install. Factory reset does not help.

Factory reset solves the problem for Version 1.12.0-rc2-beta17 (build: 9779)

Quitting docker and then killing all process containing “docker” did the trick for me. To be safe, I recreated the symlink as mentioned earlier in this thread.

Quitting docker and killing all processes works. No need to recreate the symlink (at least here). Thanks @shoan!

Quitting docker and killing all processes does not work for me. Factory Reset is the only thing that worked.

Here’s a script to do this quickly.

for e in `compgen -A variable | grep DOCKER_`; do unset $e; done

Factory reset did not help me. Did not have environment variables set. Docker appears to be setting the symlink incorrectly to a socket that doesn’t exist. @austinylin’s suggested work-around works for me. Running Version 1.12-0-beta22 (build:11222).
