Credential saving error when connecting to service on docker

Question

I am on a silicon chip Macbook Pro running macOS Monterey version 12.0.1 and the following error occurs on attempting to connect to the NGC service using sudo docker login ncvr.io.

Error saving credentials: error storing credentials - err: exit status 1, out: `Post "http://ipc/registry/credstore-updated": dial unix /var/root/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker/Data/backend.sock: connect: no such file or directory`

Answer 1

You will need to have docker running. Try opening Docker Desktop and attempt your login again.
