i'm using nanobox with docker in the lightweight VM

$ nanobox start
Starting Nanobox :

    You can attempt to regenerate them using 'docker-machine regenerate-certs [name]'.
    Be advised that this will trigger a Docker daemon restart which will stop running containers.

  ✓ Configuring Network
  ✓ Loading kernel modules
  ✓ Cleaning DHCP
  ✓ Regenerating Docker certs
  ✓ Joining virtual network

Error   : unable to communicate with Docker
Context : failed to initialize docker for provider

than on any subsequent start:

$ nanobox start
✓ Skipping (already running)

Error   : unable to communicate with Docker
Context : failed to initialize docker for provider

by using docker-machine I saw this

$docker-machine ls
NAME      ACTIVE   DRIVER       STATE     URL                         SWARM   DOCKER    ERRORS

SOLUTION

$ docker-machine regenerate-certs -f --client-certs nanobox
$ docker-machine stop nanobox
$ nanobox run
