<![CDATA[Help! Docker engine fails to start.]]>I received an alert from community members telling me that the server is down.

Docker engine has failed to start.

systemctl status box shows that Cloudron is running.

What do I do??

I believe that Linode automatically updated Ubuntu to 22.04 . . because I installed the version, which Cloudron recommended.

  • Edit /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/custom.conf
  • Change --graph to --data-root
  • systemctl daemon-reload
  • systemctl restart docker
