Azure app service doesn't install docker properly

I am currently trying to start ElasticSearch on an Azure app service using Docker. I install docker through the ssh available in azure app services. Docker seem to install alright in the console, however when I run

docker pull docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:7.6.2

I get the following error in the ssh console:

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

I have installed and uninstall Docker several times, however I still get the same error

Azure App service does not allow you to run Elastic Search due to its limitations

You may use Elastic as a Service on Azure or install it in AKS or VM.

https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/elastic.ec-azure?tab=Overview

You are trying to install Docker inside the Docker container

App Service for Linux comes with a bunch of preconfigured containers such as Node, PHP, Java, Python, Ruby and .NET Core. enter image description here

The exact issue you mentioned means that Docker daemon is not started in your Linux environment

To start the Docker daemon use command:

systemctl start docker
