Hyperledger Fabric Not able to install docker

Question

I am trying to run

sudo apt-get install docker-engine. 

But I get error:

Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

How to solve this error?

Answer 1

Clean up the invalid package repository:

cd ../../etc/apt/sources.list.d
sudo rm docker.list

Then add the repository and update:

sudo apt-add-repository 'deb https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-xenial main'
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install docker-engine
