Run docker in docker on a dedicated server?
I will run docker on a dedicated sever by a service provider. It is not
possible to install docker on this server. Apache, Git and a lot more is
installed. So I try to run docker in a container. I will pull a docker image
from the gitlab registry and run in a sub domain. I wrote a .gitlab-ci.yml. But
I get an error message.
I found this answer:
You can't (*) run Docker inside Docker containers or images. You can't (*)
start background services inside a Dockerfile. As you say, commands like
systemctl and service don't (*) work inside Docker anywhere. And in any case
you can't use any host-system resources, including the host's Docker socket,
from anywhere in a Dockerfile.
How do I solve this problem?
$ sudo docker run hello-world
docker: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?.
See 'docker run --help'.

The usual answer is to give your container access to the host’s Docker socket-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock; given that and appropriate Unix permissions you can launch other containers (and also do whatever you want on the host).
