Watchtower fails to kill containers

[socram70]

Hi all,

I keep getting the following messages when trying to update my containers:

time="2023-12-18T19:07:54Z"` level=error msg="Error response from daemon: Cannot kill container: 1b1d48562c9d87bca921f2f9b22cdc634f4c7d8e26de1818bd4bf7c31d915458: Cannot kill container 1b1d48562c9d87bca921f2f9b22cdc634f4c7d8e26de1818bd4bf7c31d915458: unknown error after kill: runc did not terminate successfully: exit status 1: unable to signal init: permission denied\n: unknown"

time="2023-12-18T19:07:54Z" level=info msg="Session done" Failed=3 Scanned=20 Updated=0 notify=no

time="2023-12-18T19:08:09Z" level=info msg="Found new nextcloud:fpm-alpine image (ce840e816be5)"

Does anyone have an idea how this could be solved?

I already tried to use watchtower via the stack function in portainer and also via a separate docker-compose file (outside of portainer) - none helped.

Well, watchtower asks docker to stop a container and it just fails to do so. I don't think the way you setup watchtower matters in this situation.
Perhaps you have some additional security rules that prevents containers from stopping each other? Where are you running your containers? is it some kind of vendor-customized machine perhaps?

Thank you very much @piksel for your time. I thought the same and therefore figured out that apparmor in the newest Ubuntu release might cause these problems. If anybody else ever stumbles upon this issue, this is how I solved it:

sudo aa-remove-unknown
sudo apt purge --auto-remove apparmor
sudo service docker restart

The first command might be sufficient, so I wouldn't bother uninstalling apparmor, since this also uninstalls snapd.

Ubuntu installs Firefox as a snap. You can add the Mozilla PPA as an alternative.

Still makes no sense?
