Google Cloud Shell - PermissionDeniedError: /etc/docker; Permission denied

I'm suddenly unable to run Tensorboard on my Google Cloud Platform account. 

my-username@my-projectp:~$ tensorboard --logdir gs://my_bucket --host localhost --port 8088
TensorBoard 0.4.0rc3 at http://localhost:8088 (Press CTRL+C to quit)
Exception in thread Reloader:

How can this be fixed?

Found the answer. Looks like a bug in Cloud Shell or Tensorflow. The problem was that I added gs:// twice in my Tensorflow's model-dir value. So some of the logs that Tensorflow tried to read were under a path like

gs://my_bucket/models/model_xyz/gs://my_bucket/models/model_xyz

There was indeed a directory called gs: in my Cloud Storage account. Inside of which there was another directory named /. Deleting the gs: directory fixed the issue.
