circleci-cli: Cannot run local job on Mac OSX Intel due to Docker error

Meta:

CircleCI CLI Version: 0.1.16947+263902a (homebrew)

Operating System: OSX Monterrey 12.2.1, Intel chip

Docker Desktop Version: 4.5.0 (74594)

Current behavior:

I cannot run any job in local, while those jobs in Cloud pass. This is probably linked to local Docker, but I have an up-to-date Docker Desktop on my laptop.

I tried to run the build job from here (and plenty of others)

Output:

When did this begin / Was this previously working?:

I just installed circleci-cli on my Macbook, and it never worked. It also happened in a relative’s machine.

Additional Information:

I don’t have any issue with Docker in other use cases, I can properly run containers.

There is another workaround in the related Docker Desktop issue that doesn’t require using an old Docker Desktop.

Edit “$HOME/Library/Group Containers/group.com.docker/settings.json” and update deprecatedCgroupv1 to true.

This requires Docker Desktop 4.6.0 or newer.

Can confirm, downgrading Docker Desktop to 4.2.0 solves this issue for now.

Same issue on Docker v4.15.0, on MacOS: 12.6, 2.4 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9 Worked around with https://github.com/CircleCI-Public/circleci-cli/issues/672#issuecomment-1235768553, which is:

edit ~/Library/Group Containers/group.com.docker/settings.json
update deprecatedCgroupv1 to true
Save changes
Restart Docker

Downgrading Docker Desktop (currently from 4.10) to 4.2 is not a solution. It’s a workaround.

A fix should be implemented so we don’t have to stay on an outdated version. Unfortunately it sounds like that fix may have to be implemented in Docker, and not circleci.

Likewise, I had the same issue, until I downgraded to Docker Desktop 4.2.0, then I was able to run a circleci local execute.

Version numbers for when it wouldn’t run:

circlecli: 0.1.17183+341e493 (homebrew)
Docker Desktop 4.7.1 (77678)
macOS: 12.3.1 (M1 MBP)

Edit: When I downgraded the circleci CLI version and changed the SHA256 in build_agent_settings.json to sha256:008ba7f4223f1e26c11df9575283491b620074fa96da6961e0dcde47fb757014 as described here it worked for me under the current Docker Desktop too.

Reading this issue to see what the status is but seems to be a known issue, I believe https://github.com/CircleCI-Public/circleci-cli/issues/589

davidmparrott on Mar 2, 2022

Any updates on when it’s going to be solved?

nope, 420 is the answer;) (docker desktop version)

you saved my day.

I have the same problem with macOS monterey 12.1, Docker Desktop 4.6.0 (75818), circleci 0.1.17554+2b4b295 (homebrew)

This works, the only missing step is that you need to restart docker

Eder87rh on Dec 2, 2022

Yeah, also still seeing this on an Intel Mac with Monterey 12.3.1, Docker Desktop 4.8.1 (78998), and CircleCI v0.1.17554.

kienstra on May 12, 2022

I’m getting the same error CircleCi: 0.1.16947+263902a (homebrew) Docker Desktop: 4.5.0 (74594) MacBook Pro: Monterey 12.2.1; M1 Pro

I see the same error on Intel MacOS 12.1 with both Docker 4.4.2 & 4.5, and MacOS 12.2.1 with Docker 4.5
