Can't install TAO CE on my laptop

Support
1

I have followed the instruction on TAO CE Installation Guide | TAO and first installed a docker desktop (and registered myself) and than unzip the zip and so on but when I run the command I get this message:

unable to get image ‘docker.io/postgres:17-alpine’: request returned 500 Internal Server Error for API route and version http://%2F%2F.%2Fpipe%2FdockerDesktopLinuxEngine/v1.51/images/docker.io/postgres:17-alpine/json, check if the server supports the requested API version

Why? How can I fix this and install TAO CE on my laptop? Or is this just not possible?

Hello, and welcome to TAO Community

can you share a bit more about your host environment ? (windows/macos/linux? version?)

according to error message you shared, it seems you are facing an error while trying to download some dependencies services from Docker Hub. Those services are not maintained by our company.

A 500 error can be related to some temporary issue on Docker Hub, maybe this deserve another try. Hub status can be checked on this page (no error signaled).
