Hi everybody, I am trying to install Docker on my Rocky Linux 10, but every time I get the following error. Do you know what might be causing this error and how can I resolve that ? For the installation, I followed the Docker tuto like below: sudo dnf -y install dnf-plugins-core sudo dnf config-ma…

Hi picjuju, Unable to reproduce your issue on a fresh install of 10.1, using these instructions :- $ systemctl status docker ● docker.service - Docker Application Container Engine Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/docker.service; enabled; preset: disabled) Active: active (running) since Tue …

Hi Tom, I think the problem comes from RHEL 10 himself. I just tried with RHEL 9 (9.7) and it works perfectly. Perhaps we need to wait for a few more fixes before Docker is fully supported by RHEL 10.

RHEL10 does have the module: root@rhel10:~# modprobe ip_tables root@rhel10:~# lsmod | grep tables ip_tables 32768 0 nf_tables 393216 439 nft_ct,nft_reject_inet,nft_fib_ipv6,nft_fib_ipv4,nft_chain_nat,nft_reject,nft_fib,nft_fib_inet nfnetlink 20480 3 nf_table…

Hi iwalker, thank you for your response. When I try to install iptables, the service failed to start. After bootstrap of RHEL 10: $ lsmod | grep tables nf_tables 389120 0 nfnetlink 20480 2 nf_tables After iptables installation: $ sudo systemctl status iptables × iptabl…

Hi @picjuju ! I had the same Docker error on Rocky Linux 10. In my case, it was a fresh install (cloud image). I was following the official Rocky Linux Docker guide ( https://docs.rockylinux.org/10/gemstones/containers/docker/ ), but after installing Docker, I got this error when trying to start it: f…

[image] HasanH47: Docker needs the xt_addrtype module from it for networking. In other words, Docker creates iptables/netfilter rules that use addrtype module, an iptables extension. RHEL, starting from RHEL 8 has defaulted to nf_tables rulesets, deprecating use of iptables. Ideally, everyb…

Thanks for the technical details! You’re right about nf_tables being the default in RHEL/Rocky 8+. In my case, the issue was simply that kernel-modules-extra wasn’t installed by default, and Docker (even with nf_tables) still needs the xt_addrtype module for its networking rules. As noted in Docke…

Am I the only one who can’t get Docker to work ? I try to provide Rocky Linux 10 via Terraform on my proxmox machine to deploy a gitlab runner. So I installed the latest version of the image https://dl.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/10/images/x86_64/Rocky-10-GenericCloud-Base.latest.x86_64.qcow2 Then he…

Have you tried running sudo dnf update -y first, before the kernel-modules-extra install? In my experience, the fresh Rocky 10.1 cloud image might boot with a newer kernel, but the package repositories on the VM aren’t fully synced yet. Running the update first ensures you get the package version th…

Hi Tom, thank you for your response, however it seems that I haven’t ìp_tables module on RHEL 10.

$ sudo modprobe ip_tables
modprobe: FATAL: Module ip_tables not found in directory /lib/modules/6.12.0-55.14.1.el10_0.x86_64
