How to install specific version of Docker(like 1.3.2
)?
I am unable to find any documentation in docker official docs. Referring this link for Ubuntu.
<Got the answer from this github issue comment.
Summary of above commit:-
echo deb http://get.docker.com/ubuntu docker main > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list
apt-key adv --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 36A1D7869245C8950F966E92D8576A8BA88D21E9
apt-get update
apt-get install -y lxc-docker-1.3.3
If permission issue then use sudo
as:
echo deb http://get.docker.com/ubuntu docker main | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 36A1D7869245C8950F966E92D8576A8BA88D21E9
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y lxc-docker-1.3.3
Bonus Tip:
Don't know which version? Then hit Tab
after lxc-docker-
as:
sudo apt-get install -y lxc-docker-<Hit Tab here>
to see list of available docker versions.
Another option is to replace install -y lxc-docker
in the script with install -y lxc-docker-<version>
.
For example, this will install docker 1.6.2
:
RUN wget -qO- https://get.docker.com/ubuntu/ | sed -r 's/^apt-get install -y lxc-docker$/apt-get install -y lxc-docker-1.6.2/g' | sh
I got version 1.6.2 years old from source on Ubuntu 16.04. This might not translate to other Docker versions:
git clone https://github.com/moby/moby docker
cd docker
git tag -l
-- find your tag of interest in this list (e.g. v1.6.2)
git checkout <tag name>
sudo make build
Depending on how old your version is, you might see some errors in this step. If you see sample docker images failing to get pulled in, feel free to comment the associated lines out in the Dockerfile
. You might see a lvm2
source related failure. Modify the non-existent link to the source specified here. Specifically, in my case, I had to change make Dockerfile
refer to the lvm2
source code at git at git://sourceware.org/git/lvm2.git
.
sudo make binary
I find easier to check available versions with
sudo apt-cache policy docker-engine
and then install the one you want:
sudo apt-get install docker-engine=1.7.1-0~trusty
It consists on simply following the instructions from docker docs https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/ubuntulinux/, but selecting a particular version
Follow below step to install specific version of docker-ce and docker-ce-cli .
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"
sudo apt-get update
Find the specific version of docker-ec and docker-ce-cli . Her in this example i am looking for 19.03
apt-cache policy docker-ce | grep 19
apt-cache policy docker-ce-cli | grep 19
From above command you will get list of docker version , copy respected version.
apt-get install docker-ce=5:19.03.14~3-0~ubuntu-bionic docker-ce-cli=5:19.03.14~3-0~ubuntu-bionic
How I did it on my laptop (btw https://get.docker.com/ubuntu/ not available anymore):
$ wget -qO- https://get.docker.com/ | sh # install resources
$ apt-cache showpkg docker-engine # show version which are available
$ apt-get install docker-engine=1.8.2-0~willy # install 1.8.2 version
$ sudo apt-mark hold docker-engine # prevent upgrade on sys upgrade
$ docker version # check installed docker version
