May 3, 2023 at 8:23 comment added A.Casanova @Soren this is because you are trying to chown while the docker daemon is running. Stop docker with systemctl stop docker then run the commands of this solution and start it again with systemctl start docker
Jan 29, 2023 at 12:29 comment added Yaroslav Yakovlev Worked for me with just adding the group and adding the user to the group, but after reboot. Im on Pop!_OS 20.04 LTS. One might want to reboot, try it out and only if it doesnt work use this solution.

Oct 10, 2021 at 3:23 comment added miu @Soren I just tried it right now again with Ubuntu 20.04 and all my commands from above work fine. If you use the chown command with sudo you shouldn't get any error messages. Try to reboot, log into the root accout and run the two chown commands (no sudo needed). Then logout from the root user account and into your normal user account and try to use docker without sudo. Does it work now?

Make sure that the user logs out and logs back in again.
