I have two problems that I am facing with the docker plugin for telegraf 1.3. Running telegraf as the telegraf user I get: Aug 29 12:24:20 lxv5224 telegraf: 2017-08-29T17:24:20Z E! Error in plugin [inputs.docker]: Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix://…

I recommend adding the telegraf user to the docker group and not modifying the permissions of the socket. Try following these postinstall steps . Regarding your second question, are you using TLS with the docker socket?

thanks for your help Daniel, issue has been resolved. it was related to the users groups and pointing to the incorrect socks location.

[image] cardanid: ting to the incorrect socks location. I have a similar error please see Telegraf - docker-containerd tks
