• Error like below is provided in /var/log/plesk/panel.log file:

ERR [extension/docker] The execution of post-install.php has failed with the following message:
ERR [extension/docker] Execution installer has failed with exit code 1, stdout:, stderr: The Docker extension cannot be installed because module container-tools are installed in your system. Read the article https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12376921232023 for more information

Cause

Docker is conflicting with the container-tools module in Rocky Linux. This module contains the Podman tool, which is incompatible with Docker and both of these tools can not be installed on the same system.

Resolution

Remove the container-tools module:

1. Log in to the server via SSH

2. Run either of the following commands:

# dnf remove @container-tools

OR

# yum remove runc podman
