'Unable to mount /var/run/docker.sock from inside linux distribution (wsl 2)
I am unable to mount docker.sock when creating a container in WSL 2:
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
I get the following error:
docker: Error response from daemon: not a directory.
When navigating to /var/run, I can clearly see docker.sock being present, so I am unsure about why I am getting this error. docker ps correctly shows all the running containers.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Try to create a volume by passing this flag to the docker run command:
-v //var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
