Am I trying to connect to a TLS-enabled daemon without TLS?

Question

I\'m trying to learn about Docker, but I keep getting cryptic (to me) error messages.

Possibly the simplest example of this is trying to print the version of Docker

Answer 1

You will need to do:

$boot2docker init
$boot2docker start

The following settings fixed the issue:

$export DOCKER_HOST=tcp://192.168.59.103:2376
$export DOCKER_CERT_PATH=/Users/{profileName}/.boot2docker/certs/boot2docker-vm
$export DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY=1
