Docker pull fails during extraction with "lchown /usr/bin/sbd no such file or directory"

Question

I've been battling trying to get Docker installed on RHEL7 and, now that I've been able to get it installed, I'm stuck just trying to do a simple docker pull.

I was able to finally get Docker installed using my proposed solution here Issues installing Docker on RHEL 7 Linux Server, but now during the extraction process, I get the following error:

latest: Pulling from [my-repo]
8657e219e309: Pull complete 
a8db9e62fad8: Extracting [==================================================>] 3.507 GB/3.507 GB
failed to register layer: ApplyLayer exit status 1 stdout:  stderr: lchown /usr/bin/sbd: no such file or directory
Unable to find image '[my-docker-repo]:latest' locally

docker: failed to register layer: ApplyLayer exit status 1 stdout:  stderr: lchown /usr/bin/sbd: no such file or directory.

I'm not sure if this is related to the way I installed docker or if it's actually something else. I only installed docker using the following two commands:

yum install -y https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/7/x86_64/stable/Packages/docker-ce-selinux-17.03.0.ce-1.el7.centos.noarch.rpm
yum install -y https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/7/x86_64/stable/Packages/docker-ce-17.03.0.ce-1.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm

I can run docker just fine and start the service, so not sure it's the installation that's the issue per se.

The only two issues I've found on the Internet that seems somewhat related to mine are these:

However, neither one of these issues have solutions other than merged pull requests that apparently still aren't fixed in my case.

I've also visited https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/rootless/#prerequisites and verified that the value shows 65,535 in my /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid values.

Still no luck.

Here's the output of my docker info command:

What was your issue with https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/centos/ ? You're installing a quite old version of docker (17.03), any specific reason for that? (The rootless doc you're referring is for more recent versions) — zigarn, Mar 26 '21 at 06:30
Yeah eventually I updated after realizing that the later versions were actually not at the top of the lists. When trying to use the centos URL, I kept running into an HTTP 404 error. I believe it's because the repo added `$basever` in the repo URLs, and mine resulted in 7Server (rather than 7), so it kept giving me 404 errors trying to access `https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/7Server/x86_64/stable/repodata/repomd.xml` — LewlSauce, Mar 26 '21 at 06:32
(you ran into https://github.com/docker/for-linux/issues/1111 and the solution is to replace $basever by 7 in the repo definition) — zigarn, Mar 26 '21 at 06:46
I tried editing the repo as well and was eventually able to get the correct docker installation going, but just having issues now with the `docker pull` process. I appreciate the reference though because I know I'll need it again on the next setup. — LewlSauce, Mar 26 '21 at 06:47
Ok. Can you adapt your question to your new setup and add the `docker info` output? — zigarn, Mar 26 '21 at 06:50
