Hello,

apt-installed docker-ce to our VPS from Strato

OS: Ubuntu 16.04
uname -a command returns:
Linux h2693417.stratoserver.net 4.4.0-042stab120.20 #1 SMP Fri Mar 10 16:52:50 MSK 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

However, docker engine does not start with the errors below:

Not all VPS/Distributation combination at Strato are capable to run docker. The “V-Server Linux” offerings are generally not able to run docker…
