How to fix error when running tests in docker via phpstorm?

Question

Docker

When trying to run tests in phpstorm, an error appears. At the same time, the docker itself works fine. The problem is only when running tests.
The problem seems to have appeared after updating python, but I'm not sure. I tried to return to the old version - it did not help.

Answer 1

A similar DistributionNotFound problem occurred on Ubuntu after changing the /usr/bin/python link from python2 to python3. Changing the link back to python2 solved the problem.
sudo ln -sf python2.7 /usr/bin/python
Before that remove docker:

sudo apt-get remove docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io

Answer 2

care1e55 is right, I did this myself:
```
sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/python2 /usr/bin/python
```
