get Docker error each time I reboot my machine: "Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock."

I'm running on ubuntu 18.04 with docker version:

 >> docker version
Client: Docker Engine - Community
 Version:           19.03.6
 API version:       1.40
 Go version:        go1.12.16
 Git commit:        369ce74a3c
 Built:             Thu Feb 13 01:27:48 2020
 OS/Arch:           linux/amd64
 Experimental:      false

each time I reboot my machine and try to use docker (e.g docker ps), I get an error:

>> docker ps   
Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

after I run:

>> service docker stop
>> service docker start

everything is back to normal..

any ideas how to solve it?

you should run

sudo systemctl enable docker

it will configure the system to start the service at reboot
