Docker:dind stops working after 12.1.0 update

Hi,

My gitlab CI pipeline started to fail right after the 12.1.0 release.

I’m using shared-runner and have following gitlab-ci.yaml config:

services:
  - docker:dind

variables:
  DOCKER_DIRVER: "overlay2"
  DOCKER_TLS_CERTDIR: ""
  DOCKER_HOST: tcp://docker:2375

stages:
  - build
  - publish
  - deploy

# Job: Build
# Builds project with gradle

build:
  image: prographerj/centos7-java8:latest
  stage: build
  script:
    - ./gradlew clean build
  tags:
    - docker
  artifacts:
    paths:
      - build/libs/
    expire_in: 1 hour
...

And now i’m getting following error in logs.

Before that (on 12.1.0-rc) everything was fine:

And everything was fine for like 1 year before.

Maybe this configuration is not relevant anymore?
Thanks in advance.

I’m having the exact same problem here, since this morning.

I’m also experiencing troubles with docker-dind

Hello, you can fix it temporary by using this:

services:
    - name: docker:dind
      entrypoint: ["env", "-u", "DOCKER_HOST"]
      command: ["dockerd-entrypoint.sh"]
  variables:
    DOCKER_HOST: tcp://docker:2375/
    DOCKER_DRIVER: overlay2
    # See https://github.com/docker-library/docker/pull/166
    DOCKER_TLS_CERTDIR: ""

Saved me some time, thank you !

Same exact issue. Problem is with new Docker image, not with Gitlab.

That solved my issue. Thank you!

Pulling docker image docker:stable ...

I found error in logs too, but dind works normally

@phpoenx I am getting the same errors as well

I’m seeing the same issue
Service container logs:

Still happening in 13.2.2
Are there any fixes in sight?

It is working now, don’t forget --docker-privileged and keep docker and docker-dind versions coherent:

job:login:
  image: docker:latest
  stage: login
  tags:
    - docker-latest-dind
  services:
    - docker:dind
  before_script:
    - docker login -u "$CI_REGISTRY_USER" -p "$CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD" $CI_REGISTRY
  script: ....

Working with the – docker-privileged of same version latest

gitlab-runner register -n \
  --non-interactive \
  --url https://YOUR_gitlab.com/ \
  --registration-token YOUR_REGISTRATION_TOKEN \
  --name YOUR_RUNNER_NAME
  --tag-list "docker-latest-dind" \
  --executor docker \
  --docker-image "docker:latest" \
  --docker-privileged

======== you can precise the version it is working with 19.03.12 or 18.09.7 ====

job:login19:
  image: docker:19.03.12
  stage: login
  tags:
    - docker-19.03.12-dind
  services:
    - docker:19.03.12-dind
  before_script:
    - docker login -u "$CI_REGISTRY_USER" -p "$CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD" $CI_REGISTRY
  script: ....

Working with the – docker-privileged of same version ex: 19.03.12

gitlab-runner register -n \
  --non-interactive \
  --url https://YOUR_gitlab.com/ \
  --registration-token YOUR_REGISTRATION_TOKEN \
  --name YOUR_RUNNER_NAME
  --tag-list "docker-19.03.12-dind" \
  --executor docker \
  --docker-image "docker:19.03.12" \
  --docker-privileged
