looks like the client of Docker inside the appwrite image is too new / your docker is too old ?

which version of docker are you using ?

going to try this suggested on other thread: It's because your Docker version is too low. Just specify your docker version in the installer like this: --env DOCKER_API_VERSION=1.43

TypeScript
docker run -it --rm     --publish 20080:20080     --env DOCKER_API_VERSION=1.43     --volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock     --volume "$(pwd)"/appwrite:/usr/src/code/appwrite:rw     --entrypoint="upgrade"     appwrite/appwrite:1.9.0
