\> (x) Failed: Packaging service aca

ERROR: error executing step command 'package --all': failed building service 'aca': building container: aca at .: building image: exit code: 1, stdout: , stderr: time="2025-03-07T01:53:55Z" level=warning msg="No output specified for docker-container driver. Build result will only remain in the build cache. To push result image into registry use --push or to load image into docker use --load"

error: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///home/example/.docker/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

The error occurs because Docker Desktop is either not installed or not running on your local machine.

To avoid above error run the Docker Desktop after running below command:

```

azd init -t hello-azd

```

If Docker Desktop is not installed, you can install it using this below links

For [windows](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/setup/install/windows-install/).

For [Linux](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/setup/install/linux/).

I successfully created the `hello-azd` image by running `azd init -t hello-azd` .


Before running the `azd up` command, I started `Docker Desktop` and then executed `azd up`, successfully creating the resource in Azure, as shown below.
