Using ubuntu 18.04 after upgrading docker to "Docker version 18.09.0-ce-tp5, build 9eb3d36"

The TP# releases are pre beta (I suspect it stands for technical preview). These will have issues, and there were lots of changes with the containerd integration. You can try upgrading to beta1, or go back to the stable 18.06.1 release. You can see the releases here:
