I have an application, which I would like to run as systemd user services.
This application can interact with Docker containers, which works when I run the application like /usr/bin/app from User u.
But when I load the application as a user service, systemctl enable --now --user app.service, I get the following error:
time="2023-06-19T14:43:15+02:00" level=error msg="Cannot get containers: could not get containers from Docker (Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Get \"http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.24/containers/json?all=1&limit=0\": dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied)"
The systemd service is defined as
[Unit]
Description=App description
After=network.target
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/app
Restart=always
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
Should the service behave like "just" running the application as a binary?
The user is already in the Docker group.
I have looked at:
- Docker: Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock
- Docker: Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket
But neither solves my problem.
