I created a new build for my Teamcity pipeline. For the first time I use then Docker buildstep. After I setup everything I realized the build agent does not seem to be ready for it.
I understand that my agent does not seem to be ready for building with docker but nobody is actually telling me how you can do that. I read the official guides but no word about how to actually install docker into my agent (if that's the way to solve the problem).
Can someone tell me what I have to do to get it to work?
EDIT
@Senior Pomidor helped me to get one step closer. I added his first example to the docker run command
docker run -it -e SERVER_URL="<url to TeamCity server>" \
--privileged -e DOCKER_IN_DOCKER=start \
jetbrains/teamcity-agent
After doing so I got rid of the mentioned messages in the screenshot. My Agents configuration now has the following:
docker.server.osType linux
docker.server.version 18.06.1
docker.version 18.06.1
But still Teamcity is complaining with this message:
Which kinda leaves me clueless again.
Final Solution: The upcoming EDIT2 issue could be resolved by just restarting the teamcity server instance. The agent was actually able to run the build but teamcity was not able to realise that without a reboot.
