why when ever i change my root password it dosent save like when i try to then access my sftp server in root it says password invalid

#

SFTP uses root account via SSH

#

check /etc/ssh/ and sshd_config for line: PermitRootLogin yes

#

And make sure its uncommented

#

then restart SSH service or the entire server and it should work.

You are referencing to a source path which it cannot find

#

ensure what needs to be inside the docker container and what needs to be in the server

#

go to var lib volumes and check if its there

#

its likely not. If it is, give docker permission to access the volume with chmod and/or chown

#

I would just sudo apt-get purge and re-install it all

#

or even re-install the entire server to get rid of everything irrelevant

I think you should just take whatever backups you need

#

and re-install the entire server

#

its much faster and easier than starting to debug each individual failing software

sudo apt-get purge docker-engine sudo apt-get autoremove --purge docker-engine rm -rf /var/lib/docker

#

I would do this

#

I guess

#

if I wanted to delete everything docker related

#

dpkg -l | grep -i docker

#

sudo apt-get purge -y docker-engine docker docker.io docker-ce docker-ce-cli docker-compose-plugin sudo apt-get autoremove -y --purge docker-engine docker docker.io docker-ce docker-compose-plugin

#

sudo rm -rf /var/lib/docker /etc/docker sudo rm /etc/apparmor.d/docker sudo groupdel docker sudo rm -rf /var/run/docker.sock
