I have problem with running docker in kubernetes runner. I've installed kubernetes runner with helm and set privileged mode to true
runners:
config: |
[[runners]]
[runners.kubernetes]
namespace = "{{.Release.Namespace}}"
image = "ubuntu:20.04"
privileged = true
allow_privilege_escalation = true I've created simple .gitlab-ci.yaml for test
stages:
- docker_test
services:
- docker:dind
docker_test:
stage: docker_test
image: docker:latest
variables:
DOCKER_HOST: "tcp://docker:2375"
script:
- docker version
But when I fire this pipeline I'm gettint error

Thank you for your hint about mounting docker.sock.
this worked for me

You need to mount the host's docker socket:
[runners.kubernetes]
image = "ubuntu:18.04"
privileged=true
[[runners.kubernetes.volumes.host_path]]
name = "docker-socket"
mount_path = "/var/run/docker.sock"
read_only = false
host_path = "/var/run/docker.sock"(NOTE: This is from one of my old gitlab installations, I haven't tested this against the latest release)
Here's my full Runner block. You can swapping my config in for yours (make a backup of your old config first) and see if it works. Obviously change things as needed -- for example I use a specific node pool, hence the node_selector and node_tolerations sections
