Installation of docker and docker-compose :ĭocker can't be installed directly by installing docker desktop app because it does not support older versions of Mac OS 10.12.6. Please ensure Docker is installed and running. but when you trying to command ddev start it will throw error saying Could not connect to docker. You run below script : curl -LO https:/ //drud /ddev/master /scripts/install_ddev.sh & bash install_ddev.shĬool ! Installation of ddev is completed. Note: I imagine you'll also find that docker desktop doesn't support your os version though.

See the script installation technique at Homebrew does not support your OS version, so you'll need to use the install_ddev.sh technique. We have to run below command brew install drud/ddev/ddevīut, it throws an error about not supporting the OS version error. Let's start with steps to installation of ddev, docker and docker-composeĪs per document of ddev installation site. In short, DDEV aims to allow development teams to use Docker in their workflow without the complexities of bespoke configuration. It's very powerful and flexible as it per project wise environment. I struggled a lot no where I found a combined blog where I got a solution to fix the issue, so I thought of writing these steps to solve the issue which can help any other developer who will face this same issue in old Mac OS ( Problem is can't upgrade OS ).ĭDEV is an open source tool that makes it dead simple to get local PHP development environments up and running within minutes. None of them was compatible with the Mac OS 10.12.6 version.

To use ddev prerequisites was to install docker and docker-compose. So the community has suggested using ddev installation to use a virtual environment without worrying about local machine compatibility. But because of my older Mac OS I was not able to install PHP's latest version which supports the latest Mautic version. I am going to explain the issue and solutions while installing ddev, docker and docker-compose on Mac OS 10.12.6 or older versions.įor the past couple days I was supporting work on the Mautic open source project issue.
