Unable to launch docker daemon - service

I have downloaded docker and when I try to launch the docker daemon using the command,
service docker daemon
I am getting the below error message,
Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the
service(8) utility, e.g. service docker daemon
Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job
I am already using service command. But the error message is still pointing me to use "service docker dameon" command, as if I am using a different command

you don't need the added daemon
Try:
sudo service docker start

if your platform supports systemctl, you can also run
sudo systemctl start docker

Run Docker through Xcode XCTestCase

I'm setting up tests for my Xcode Multiplatform App. To create a test environment I created a docker image that I want to run an XCTestCase against. I understand I'd have to make sure Docker is running before running the test. That said I'm having problems getting docker to build (run or kill).
I'm using a makefile to store the commands and planned to run the docker build and docker run commands in the setUpWithError while running the docker kill command in tearDownWithError. To run the commands I used Process to execute the shell commands. This works with ls but when I run the docker command I'm told docker: No such file or directory. Through ls I know I'm in the right location where the files exist. When switching to the terminal it works.
Is there something blocking docker from being run from my XCTestCase? If so is there anyway to get this to work or do I need to manually start docker and the docker container before running these tests?
Update
Got Docker running as it was a pathway issue. Rather than saying docker build... I now give it the entire path so /usr/local/bin/docker build.... New issue is that Xcode doesn't give me the permission to run this. I get:
docker: Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Post "http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.24/containers/create?name=remarkable": dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: operation not permitted.
See 'docker run --help'.
Is there a way to allow me to run this in ONLY this XCTestCase?

How to run systemctl in a pod

Getting access denied error while running the systemctl command in a pod.
Whenever try to start any service, for example, MySQL or tomcat server in a pod, it gives access denied error.
Is there any way by which I can run systemctl within a pod.
This is a problem related to Docker, not Kubernetes.
According to the page Run multiple services in a container in docker docs:
It is generally recommended that you separate areas of concern by
using one service per container
However if you really want to use a process manager, you can try supervisord, which allows you to use supervisorctl commands, similar to systemctl. The page above explains how to do that:
Here is an example Dockerfile using this approach, that assumes the
pre-written supervisord.conf, my_first_process, and my_second_process
files all exist in the same directory as your Dockerfile.
FROM ubuntu:latest
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y supervisor
RUN mkdir -p /var/log/supervisor
COPY supervisord.conf /etc/supervisor/conf.d/supervisord.conf
COPY my_first_process my_first_process
COPY my_second_process my_second_process
CMD ["/usr/bin/supervisord"]
That's a rather short question. The 'systemctl' command does try to talk to the systemd daemon which is not running in a pod by default (it could however). Running multiple services is yet another question about service management. It both cases it could help to use a tool like the docker-systemctl-replacement overwriting /usr/bin/systemctl and registering it as the init-CMD of the container.

Docker toolbox on windows 10. Bind for 0.0.0.0:8081 failed: port is already allocated error

I have setup docker toolbox on windows 10. While building the project I encountered the following error :- Bind for 0.0.0.0:8081 failed: port is already allocated ? The sudo service docker restart command isn't working. Please provide me a solution for the same.
Generally speaking, you need to stop running the current container. For that you are going to know current CONTAINER ID:
$ docker container ls
You get something like:
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
97a32e8928ef friendlyhello "python app.py" 51 seconds ago Up 50 seconds 0.0.0.0:4000->80/tcp romantic_tesla
Then you stop the container by:
$ docker stop 97a32e8928ef
Finally, you try to do what you wanted to do, for example:
$ docker run -p 4000:80 friendlyhello
Commonly if this error happens, I restarting my winnat with commands:
$ net stop winnat
// build your project
$ net start winnat
If that doesnt help. I restart whole docker with commands:
wsl --unregister docker-desktop
wsl --unregister docker-desktop-data
Then docker offers to restart docker-service.

Docker container mongod error when starting via ssh

I have installed mongodb on a docker container together with openssh on ubuntu 14.04. The container is running with ssh but when I ssh into the container I get the following error when trying to start mongod.
root#430f9502ba2d:~# service mongod start
Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service mongod start
Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the start(8) utility, e.g. start mongod
Also start mongod does not affect anything.
Tried looking at this also Mongo daemon doesn't run by service mongod start without it helping.
mongod --config /your/path/to/mongod.conf doesn't seem to work also, just locks up.
The error below is standard as of course there is no mongod server running.
root#430f9502ba2d:/# mongo
MongoDB shell version: 2.6.9
connecting to: test
2015-05-07T20:49:56.213+0000 warning: Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1:27017, reason: errno:111 Connection refused

exception: connect failed
The problem here is your approach. Docker does not have an init system like you are used to on traditional systems. What docker does is replace PID 1 with the process you specify in the CMD or ENTRYPOINT Dockerfile commands. For now, ignore ENTRYPOINT, because it replaces what your CMD is run with (normally, it's /bin/sh -c). You need to instruct docker to start your mongod service in your Dockerfile with the CMD command, like:
CMD usr/bin/mongod
And when you run your container, mongod will be your PID 1. Now, you're probably wondering at this point "But what about my SSH server?" and the answer is: Don't run an SSH server on your docker containers. There are some use cases where running an SSH server is okay, but almost all of the "normal" reasons (debug, C&C, etc) are nullified with the "best practice" for getting a shell on your container:
docker exec -it myContainer /bin/bash
This will drop you into a shell on your running container. The recommendation here for managing configuration and changes in your docker container is to use something like Ansible. However, remember that docker containers are ephemeral, and you shouldn't be restarting services and changing configuration state on them. If you need a config change, change the Dockerfile or config data, and then start a new container. Good luck! Here is a little more information on Dockerizing MongoDB, but keep in mind that the method described there alters the ENTRYPOINT in the Dockerfile, which is a little more involved and requires a better understanding of what's going on in Dockerfiles.
This is really helpful. I was trying to make old Ansible playbooks work with Docker by creating several blank containers and let Ansible do the rest.
It works through command
mongod --dbpath /var/lib/mongodb --smallfiles

Can't run Mongo DB deamon in docker container

I'm running docker container in OSX using boot2docker. It is a latest Ubuntu image with mongo installed using official way from package mongodb-org.
I can perfectly run mongod from command line, but can't run it as a service.
When I'm trying to do sudo service mongod start it returns
Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service mongod start
Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the start(8) utility, e.g. start mongod
I have tried to do start mongod which doesn't have any output. I have tried everything I found in Google, but no luck.
Meanwhile, I have tried to install MySQL using apt-get and I can perfectly run it as a service.
Also I have tried to install Mongo from Ubuntu's mongodb package which is a older version. Also no problem to run it as a service.
I suspect that there is something wrong with /etc/init.d/mongod script, but don't know exactly what.
Apprieciate any help.
The init-related commands on the Docker Ubuntu image are dummied out / not working because Upstart (/sbin/init) is not the first process started on the machine.
In general, any service which initializes using Upstart will not run properly in a Docker container unless you start the container with /sbin/init (you probably have to be using the ubuntu-upstart image, and make a bunch of tweaks to it too.)
If you really needed to do it this way, write a traditional init script for mongo and insert it using update-rc.d. Then, starting it with /sbin/service should work.
Why not just have the Dockerimage run mongod instead of init/shell/etc? "One process per container", right?
Use a Dockerfile to create your image, and set the CMD to:
CMD ["/usr/bin/mongod", "-f", "/etc/mongod.conf"]
