解决在CentOS 7上安装docker后无法启动的问题

Symptoms:

 在CentOS 7 上使用yum安装docker后，无法启动，报：

# service docker start

Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start  docker.service

Job for docker.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status docker.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

通过# systemctl status docker.service 命令查看日志，有如下错误：（关键是高亮的那一句）

● docker.service - Docker Application Container Engine

   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/docker.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)

Hint: Some lines were ellipsized, use -l to show in full.

Solutions:

根据高亮的错误日志得知，此linux的内核中的SELinux不支持 overlay2 graph driver ，解决方法有两个，要么启动一个新内核，要么就在docker里禁用selinux，--selinux-enabled=false 重新编辑docker配置文件： # vim /etc/sysconfig/docker

# /etc/sysconfig/docker

# Modify these options if you want to change the way the docker daemon runs

OPTIONS='--selinux-enabled=false --log-driver=journald --signature-verification=false'

if [ -z "${DOCKER_CERT_PATH}" ]; then

    DOCKER_CERT_PATH=/etc/docker

fi

如上改为--selinux-enabled=false后保存，重启docker，搞定！
