Posted February 7, 2025 Hello internet, I was trying to set up Rustdesk, following along with a NetworkChuck video, and my Ubuntu server (using AWS free tier) set up with docker is giving me this error: unable to get image 'rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest': permission denied while trying to connect to the docker daemon socket at unix://var/run/docker.sock: get "http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.47/images/rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest/json": dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied. does anyone know what this error is? google isn't helping. Thanks, Foure Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/1600579-selfhosted-rustdesk-server/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

You havent setup permissions for docker to run in userspace. Yes or else ask chatgpt which is faster. Just add group to user you're using sudo usermod -aG [username] [groupname] Relog then you'll have acces to it. In your case is group called docker. I'm jank tinkerer if it works then it works.
