AWS — RHLE7.5 Free Tier with Docker CE Since docker is considered an “Extra” rpm with RHLE, then let's explain how you can use Centos Docker Community Edition (CE) for RHLE.

The above step of installing helped me to resolve the problem. Below I am listing steps to install docker-ce on RHEL.

sudo yum install -y yum-utils

sudo yum-config-manager — add-repo https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/docker-ce.repo

sudo yum makecache fast

To avoid error “Requires: container-selinux >= 2.9” Run following command

sudo yum install -y http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/extras/x86_64/Packages/container-selinux-2.42-1.gitad8f0f7.el7.noarch.rpm

To avoid error “libtool-ltdl-2.4.2–22.el7_3.x8 FAILED” Run following command

yum install -y http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages/libtool-ltdl-2.4.2-22.el7_3.x86_64.rpm

To avoid Error: Package: docker-ce-18.03.1.ce-1.el7.centos.x86_64 (docker-ce-stable)

Run: yum install -y http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/extras/x86_64/Packages/pigz-2.3.3-1.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm

sudo yum -y install docker-ce

Can test the docker running with command: sudo systemctl start docker

To check to see if your service is running you can use:

sudo service docker status

You can install Docker-CE by setting up Docker repo.

To do So, you can follow official Documentation (Use Docker EE for RHEL).

Install required packages

sudo yum install -y yum-utils \
device-mapper-persistent-data \
lvm2

Use the following command to set up the stable repository

sudo yum-config-manager \
    --add-repo \
    https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/docker-ce.repo

INSTALL DOCKER CE

sudo yum install docker-ce
