Issue Docker permission denied

I installed Docker following the instructions here:
How to Install Docker on AlmaLinux 9 Step-by-Step

Then I installed the Plesk Extension, but when I try to open it in Plesk I always get this error:
Error: Permission denied

What did I do wrong?

When you installed the Docker extension in Plesk, it would had installed Docker for you with all the permissions. Because you didn't you're missing the permission. The permission is that you would need psaadm in the docker group. So in your SSH session do the following:

sudo usermod -aG docker psaadm

That will add the psadm account to the docker group and should resolve the error.

Thanks for the reply, after running the command I was able to access the Docker section in Plesk once, then I tried to run my Mastodon container, and now the same error is back and I can't access the Docker section anymore

Would it be an option to remove your Docker installation completely and then install Docker through the Plesk installer instead?

Here's a solution, open your console and type:

plesk bin extension --uninstall docker
sudo dnf remove -y podman buidah
sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo=https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/docker-ce.repo
sudo dnf install -y docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-compose-plugin
sudo systemctl start docker
sudo systemctl enable docker
sudo usermod -aG docker psaadm
plesk bin extension --install docker

This seems to affect Alma9 - which isn't supported currently per Does Plesk support RHEL9/AlmaLinux 9? - Support Cases from Plesk Knowledge Base.
