Can you verify you have docker-compose installed on your machine?

Run the command

Did you get permission denied issue resolved?
You may need to run

sudo ./bitwarden.sh install

or add yourself to the docker group, Steps 3 - 4

You can also look into running docker in rootless mode but that would go beyond the scope of this forum post and not necessary needed here.
