Len DiMaggio commented on JBIDE-20737:
--------------------------------------

Seeing the same behavior on RHEL7 with CR1-respin-a, for a non-root user, this error is logged, but not displayed in the UI, when a non-root user attempts to access a local running Docker, it fails - these errors are logged:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.linuxtools.docker.core 2 0 2015-09-18 14:56:28.454
!MESSAGE Could not find default settings to connect to a local Docker daemon

!ENTRY org.eclipse.linuxtools.docker.ui 4 0 2015-09-18 14:56:36.520
!MESSAGE Failed to ping the Docker daemon
!STACK 0

> A non-root user is not able to connect. No warning or error is written to the UI/dialog.
