I’m getting this error message while trying to create a docker machine on a Mac OS X 10.11.4 host machine. I tried to do a new install of Docker but it did not help the situation.
ip-192-168-1-154:etc myusername$ docker-machine create --driver virtualbox default

I also get the following message while trying to launch the Hello World example.
ip-192-168-1-154:etc myusername$ docker run hello-world
docker: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon. Is the docker daemon running on this host?.
See 'docker run --help'.
Any tips or insight here would be greatly appreciated.
