Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Docker installation: no such file or directory

I came across an error while installing docker and running the default example on my new shiny ubuntu machine. Docker told me:

[~]$ sudo docker.io run -i -t ubuntu /bin/bash
2014/05/28 22:16:32 no such file or directory

And after switching to the latest, this:

[~]$ sudo docker run -i -t ubuntu /bin/bash
2014/05/28 22:22:41 set apparmor profile docker-default: no such file or directory

After a litte searching, and fiddling arround, I noticed that all of this had nothing to do with the real problem, ufw was getting in my way:

[~]$ sudo nano /etc/default/ufw

Change

DEFAULT_FORWARD_POLICY="DROP"

to this:

DEFAULT_FORWARD_POLICY="ACCEPT"

And automagically it worked. Documentation here , just didn't thought of this being the reason. Another good call to RTFM!

As always, hope it helps!

Unfortunately, this does not help me on Linux Mint 17.
What helps me with this problem is installing apparomor-utils.

$ sudo apt-get install apparmor-utils

This advice is from here:

Anyway, thank you for pro tip!
