Active user is not added to the docker group, preventing SkillFish AI from starting #13

Description

@SwiatLinuksa

SkillFishOS version

26.06 Aetherium

Hardware

AMD BC-250

Kernel flavor

7.0.11-skillfishos (BC-250 main)

Affected area

AI panel / Ollama

What happened?

After installing SkillFishOS, SkillFish AI could not start correctly.

Docker is installed and the docker service is running, but the active user is not added to the docker group.

Because of this, Docker cannot access /var/run/docker.sock and SkillFish AI fails with a permission denied error.

After adding the user to the docker group`, logging out and logging back in, SkillFish AI works correctly.

Temporary workaround

Run:

sudo usermod -aG docker

Log out and log back in.

After that, SkillFish AI starts normally.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install SkillFishOS.
  2. Log into the system.
  3. Start SkillFish AI.
  4. The installation fails because Docker cannot access the Docker socket.

Running:

groups

shows that the active user is not a member of the docker group.

Logs / output

permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock

dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied
