Based on the lack of results while searching for solutions here, I may be the only person with this particular problem. (#EdgeCase
Somewhere about a week ago I discovered the Collabora wasn’t working. As I got further down the troubleshooting road, I discovered that Docker wasn’t running. I went through the standard hack-admin tricks of duck-duck-go ’ing the error messages seen in,See "systemctl status docker.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.,
I’ve tried a few ways of removing and reinstalling Docker by following the page here:
Every attempt I have made (about 8 permutations ), has always failed to finish properly because the docker never starts.
Does anybody want to guess how I may have loused things up?

your docker socket is running?
systemctl status docker.socket
stopped working / never worked?
don’t know what went wrong, but obviously docker isn’t installed proberly.
did you try to remove/purge the existing installation?
Unit docker.socket could not be found.
Definitely stopped working. I was doing Colabora since years ago. I may have started in NC version 12?
Yes, I did.
ruppscloudadmin:
Yes, I did.
