Solution

  • Problem

    doctl is not able to find docker because snap binary path is /usr/snap/bin and docker binary path is /usr/local/bin/

    so somehow connection between them is broken

    THIS IS MY CUSTOM SOLUTION TO MAKE IT WORK :

    Step-1 : Uninstall doctl and Refresh env path

    #sudo snap remove doctl

    Step-2 : Install doctl using latest package

    wget https://github.com/digitalocean/doctl/releases/download/v1.17.0/doctl-1.17.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz
curl -sL https://github.com/digitalocean/doctl/releases/download/v1.38.0/doctl-1.38.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz | tar -xzv
sudo mv ~/doctl /usr/local/bin

    (optional)Step ? : Fix path Problem if doctl not found then fix it using Symbolic Link

    ln -s /usr/local/bin/doctl /usr/snap/doctl

    Step-3 : Run docker login command

    #doctl registry login

    **IF getting error related to x11 then run command below and try Step-3 **

    sudo apt update 
sudo apt -V install gnupg2 pass

    #doctl registry login

    login successfully
