Can't connect to docker from docker-compose

Question

I installed docker-machine 0.1.0 and docker-compose 1.1.0 on Mac OS 10.8.5.
Docker-machine is running normally and able to connect by docker-machine ssh.

Answer 1

I know it's silly, but in my case I just tried with sudo and it worked like a charm.

in your case, just try: $ sudo docker-compose up
