Tried to clean up images, containers via following docker commands nothing help:

docker system prune -af
docker builder prune
docker rm $(docker ps -a -q)
docker rmi $(docker images -a -q)

# Tried to pull images without caches also failed
docker build --pull --no-cache -t "my-app" .

    To fix this;

    • Close Docker
    • Remove containers manually
    rm -rf ~/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker
    • Start docker and it will magically work!

    the fix is to edit /etc/docker/daemon.json file and add below content to it:

    { "storage-driver": "devicemapper" }

    Reload the systemctl daemon:

    systemctl daemon-reload

    And restart docker service:

    systemctl restart docker
