Do you have docker installed?
If you don't, this installation path will fail for obvious reasons.
Installing docker is kind of out of scope for this installer imo, but maybe we can check if docker is installed and give a better error message.

yes sorry for my misstake in the error reporting, i was thinking that we could add like:

if [[ $(which docker) && $(docker --version) ]]; then
    echo "Update docker"
    docker update
  else
    echo "Install docker"
    #prerequisite
        sudo apt update && sudo apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common -y
    #GPG key
        curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-    keyring.gpg
    #Docker repository to APT
        echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
    #install from the Docker repo
        sudo apt update && apt-cache policy docker-ce && sudo apt install docker-ce
fi
