Question / Where do you need Help?

The rancher server container is restarting continuously.

bb48fa89ebb3 rancher/k3s:v1.20.6-k3s1 "/bin/k3s server --n…" 15 minutes ago Restarting (255) 9 seconds ago k3d-hoory-server-0

and if I get k3d node list I could the server have a restart loop.

NAME                 ROLE           CLUSTER   STATUS
k3d-cname-registry   registry       cname     running
k3d-cname-server-0   server         cname     restarting
k3d-cname-serverlb   loadbalancer   cname     running

when I get docker container logs bb48fa89ebb3 it gives me this error log:

It was working fine and suddenly today stopped working.

Scope of your Question

• Is your question related to a specific version of k3d (or k3s)?
  I think no, I was on k3d v4.4.2 and updated but it is there
• Please paste the output of k3d version here
  k3d version v4.4.6
  k3s version v1.21.1-k3s1 (default)

docker version: Docker version 20.10.7, build f0df350
os: Linux 5.8.0-59-generic #66~20.04.1-Ubuntu

if you face this issue, I solved it by:

• keep your Linux up to date
• don't trust docker rootless : |
• if you want to have a fully pruned docker, remove whole the docker from the system and install it again
