[Pyarmor 8.3.4] Cannot start pyarmor-auth - could not get docker host machine id

[BenjaminYde]

I want to start the pyarmor-auth, but the following command fails:

pyarmor-auth pyarmor-device-regfile-xxxx.3.zip

Output:

pyarmor.cli.CliError: could not get docker host machine id

When I reboot my device, the machine id in the generated pyarmor-group-device. changes.
Is the error pyarmor.cli.CliError: could not get docker host machine id due to the fact that the machine id changes on reboot?
I do not want to change my device id each time the device reboots.
I want to keep using the same device ID on the same device.

First run pyarmor -d reg pyarmor-device-regfile-xxxx.3.zip to check log, it will show both machine id in license file and current machine id.

Pyarmor 8.3.x introduces a new machine id which ignore virtual network (for example, docker bridge), it should keep same, please check it by this

    python3 -c "from pyarmor.cli.core import pytransform3                
    print('machine id', pytransform3.get_hd_info(16))"                    

And check whether it changes after reboot.

If it really changes, please report an issue machine id is changed with system information about os, physical device or vm etc.
