Quick Fix: Modify the Docker daemon to run as a non-root user by using the following command:
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
Then log out and log back in to apply the changes.
The Problem:
When attempting to build a Docker container on macOS using the ‘sudo docker-compose up –build’ command, the process fails with the error message ‘must use ASL logging (which requires CGO) if running as root’.
The Solutions:
Solution 1: Run Docker Daemon as Non-Root User
When using Docker Desktop on macOS (Apple Silicon), it’s recommended to run the Docker daemon as a non-root user. This avoids any issues with root-level permissions.
To run Docker as a non-root user, simply remove the sudo prefix from the docker-compose command:
docker-compose up --build
If prompted, enter your computer password to grant the necessary permissions.
