Linux: Installation of extension fails with error

[yacylover]

Hi,

I'm unable to install the volumes-backup-extension. Error msg is:

[steve@cosmos volumes-backup-extension]$ docker extension install docker/volumes-backup-extension:latest Extensions can install binaries, invoke commands and access files on your machine. Are you sure you want to continue? [y/N] y Image not available locally, pulling docker/volumes-backup-extension:latest...

I also tried to build from source but with the same error. Kernel boot arg overlay.metacopy=N or echo N | sudo tee /sys/module/overlay/parameters/metacopy
doesn't help :-(

Hi @yacylover, thanks for reporting this issue.

We're aware of it and we'll be releasing a fix in the next release of Docker Desktop (4.18).

Thank you very much

I just tried and have same issue, I have recent Docker Desktop:

Extension was not installed. Reason: installation could not be completed due to: forwarding VM socket "/run/guest-services/docker_volumes-backup-extension/ext.sock" to "\\\\.\\pipe\\dockerExtensions-docker_volumes-backup-extension-ext": Put "http://ipc/forwards/expose/pipe": context deadline exceeded
