I am trying to do the docker-compose up command in my terminal. First I navigate to the file directory where I find a docker-compose.yaml. Then I write the command. The Server is on Port 80. I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

[12728] Failed to execute script docker-compose
The first error shows up two times then the second.
Add your user to docker group and try again.
sudo gpasswd -a $USER docker
newgrp docker
If you still have the problem, you may try after logging out and login back, or reboot. Or simply do:
sudo su $USER
Note: this may also happens if docker is not running on your machine. For linux with sytemd service manager, you could verify using command:
systemctl status docker.service
I had the same issue and error message. In my case i had to start and enable docker service.
systemctl start docker
systemctl enable docker
I had the same error after system and Docker updates on macOS Big Sur 11.1. I was also unable to run Docker Desktop, so I've checked the option open at login and simply restarted the system.
just open Docker Desktop on your computer
Make sure your docker is actually running on your machine. You can use this post: How to check if the docker engine and a docker container are running?
To add clarity to Zstack's answer.
I encountered this issue while trying to setup Ansible AWX on Ubuntu 20.04
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Error connecting: Error while fetching server API version: ('Connection aborted.', PermissionError(13, 'Permission denied'))"} ...ignoring
Here's how I fixed it:
The issue was caused because I had not added my current user to the docker group.
Create the docker group if it does not already exist.
sudo groupadd docker
Add your user to the docker group.
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
Log out and log back in so that your group membership is re-evaluated.
Verify that you can run docker commands without sudo.
docker ps
That's all.
sudo chmod 666 /var/run/docker.sock
This worked for me
This problem occurs due to docker user has no right access ,
After giving the right permissions and reconnecting to the server should solve the issue,
You can create the docker user if not exist
sudo groupadd docker
Add docker user to user group
usermod -aG docker $USER
Then reconnect to the server, it should work.

I tried almost all the solutions above but for some reason what worked for me was sourcing the bashrc file:
source ~/.bashrc.
After this the error went away.
