`Authorization Token has expired` issue AWS-CLI on MacOS Sierra

I'm trying to push a docker image to the AWS ECR repository using the aws-cli.

• I just run the get-login command
• execute the output (which returns login succeeded)
• then try to push a docker image then I get the message:
  denied: Your Authorization Token has expired. Please run 'aws ecr get-login' to fetch a new one.

I don't know whats going wrong, I'm pushing to the right repo, the time on my mac is correct. This was working before, but since I reinstalled my mac and upgraded to macOS Sierra it's not working anymore, so probably related to that.

My aws --version output:

aws-cli/1.11.34 Python/2.7.10 Darwin/16.3.0 botocore/1.4.91

The complete output of the commands I run:

$ aws ecr get-login --region eu-west-1
docker login -u AWS -p AQECAHh....b6Wk -e none https://1234567890.dkr.ecr.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com
$ docker login -u AWS -p AQECAHh....b6Wk -e none https://1234567890.dkr.ecr.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com
Flag --email has been deprecated, will be removed in 1.13.

Neither of solutions above worked for my but I found that when I set region in ecr login command it worked.

aws ecr get-login --region us-west-2

You might just be running the command and not pasting the command that is echo'd out from that command back into the terminal. Easy mistake to make. Once you run:

aws ecr get-login --no-include-email --region us-east-1

It will print out another command to run, you'll need to copy that command and run it in your terminal to authenticate fully.

Or a cool shortcut is to just pipe the echo'd command back into the shell with:
aws ecr get-login --no-include-email --region us-east-1 | sh

Latest versions of Docker use a new credentials storage feature which has a bug where doing a docker login with a URL that specifies a protocol will result in token expiration errors. This issue will be fixed in Docker 1.13.

For the time being, the workaround is to execute your login commands without specifying the protocol.

So in the command blob returned by aws ecr get-login:

docker login -u AWS -p AQECAHh....b6Wk -e none https://1234567890.dkr.ecr.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com

Should be replaced with this:

docker login -u AWS -p AQECAHh....b6Wk -e none 1234567890.dkr.ecr.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com

Omitting the https://should make docker work for the time being.

This answer worked for me using the AWS CLI v2.0.26

https://github.com/aws/aws-cli/issues/4962#issuecomment-592064025

aws --region us-west-2 ecr get-login-password | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.dkr.ecr.us-west-2.amazonaws.com

where us-west-2 is your region and the xxxxxxxxxxxxxx is your account ID found at the beginning of the line below "Repository Name" here: https://us-west-2.console.aws.amazon.com/ecr/create-repository?region=us-west-2

You need to refresh your authorization token every 12 hours try:

$(aws ecr get-login --no-include-email --region us-east-1) - change region according to your configuration

Just had the same issue on Linux Mint 18.1 (Ubuntu 16.04) with AWS ECR and latest Docker 17.06.1-ce used via latest Python Docker client 2.5.1. Login worked, push failed.

Removal of ~/.docker/config.json helped. It only contained, probably stale, authorisation token.

I don't think it has something to do with underlying OS. In my case it worked previously and the only change I can recall was upgrade from Ubuntu repo's docker.io 1.12 to Docker repo's docker-ce 17.06.

You get also the message "Your Authorization Token has expired" if you have more than one credentials in ~/.aws/credentials (path depending on your os) and forget to add the --p flag.

Use this command to get login:

aws ecr get-login --region eu-west-1 -p <yourprofilename>

Simple Command:

password=$(aws ecr get-login-password --region us-east-1)
echo $password | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin 787566098823.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com

I've had luck using eval. For example,

$ aws ecr get-login --region us-east-1 --no-include-email --profile username_env 

Didn't work.

$ eval $(aws ecr get-login --region us-east-1 --no-include-email --profile username_env)

Did work.

The following steps worked for me. First, run

aws ecr get-login --region us-west-2

You will get an output which returns:

docker login -u AWS -p AQECAHh....b6Wk -e none 1234567890.dkr.ecr.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com

Now, remove "-e none" from the above result and run the command again.

You will be able to login successfully.

Now, try pushing your docker image and it will work!

I was also getting the same error, below is the solution I have tried and it is working:

1. Run command: aws ecr get-login --no-include-email --region ap-southeast-1 (change region as per your repository)
2. you will get output something like: docker login -u AWS -p xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx== https://youraccountid.dkr.ecr.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com

Remove "https://" and then run the command as docker login -u AWS -p xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx== youraccountid.dkr.ecr.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com

And it will work and you will be able to push the image.

In my case the issue was multiple credentials in ~/.aws/credentails so I used --profile

aws ecr get-login --no-include-email --region us-east-2 --profile xxxx

This worked for me.

I just wanted to post the official migration link as I believe it'll be most up to date if things change:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cliv2-migration.html#cliv2-migration-ecr-get-login

It states

$(aws ecr get-login --no-include-email)

should be replaced by

aws ecr get-login-password | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin MY-REGISTRY-URL

This is due to potential password exposure in the CLI. It's worth mentioning you can migrate to the new method from CLI version 1.17.10 for a smooth migration to 2.X

This happened when I was trying to push/pull from a registry in another AWS account. I needed to run get-login with the --registry-ids flag, passing in the ID of the registry I wanted to log into.

Most of the above solutions won't be working if you aws-cli/2.0.0

For me, I have aws-cli/2.0.0 Python/3.8.1 Darwin/19.4.0 botocore/2.0.0dev4

What worked for was to do re-login. If you are on aws-cli/2.0.0 then the following might work for you as well. aws ecr get-login-password |docker login --username AWS --password-stdin $IMAGE_PATH

I was using the stable version of docker for mac Version 1.12

I just upgraded to the beta version Version 1.13.0-rc4-beta34.1 (14853) and now it all works as intended.

So if there are people with the same issue, make sure you use docker for mac version 1.13 or higher, if 1.13 isn't released yet, switch to the beta version.

I know the post is related to MacOS Sierra, but for those who have the problem on Windows, I performed the following:

1) aws ecr get-login, this command will output a long string

docker login -u AWS -p eyJwYXlsb2FkIjoiUXBnQ2FTV1B6Q1JqZGlH......(Omitted the whole line for better understanding) -e none https://xxxxxxx.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com.

2) Copy and paste the above line (perhaps -e none won't work, so remove it too). The output will show a warning followed by a success: WARNING! Using --password via the CLI is insecure. Use --password-stdin Login Succeeded

If you need to use a secure way, use the --password-stdin

3) Now you can safely push the image -docker push xxxxxxx.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/ecfs-test

Maybe this solution will work on Mac too.

The problem is because the aws ecr get-login command retrieves a token that is valid for a specified registry for 12 hours, and then it prints a docker login command with that authorization token and we are not executing that command that we get back.

We need to execute this printed command to log in to your registry with Docker. In my case , I am using eval to execute the printed command that I get back from the aws ecr get-login like this:

eval $(aws ecr get-login --region eu-west-1 --profile )

This is the current format I believe, assuming you're trying to get access for Docker:

    aws ecr get-login-password \
    --region REGION \
| docker login \
    --username AWS \
    --password-stdin ACCESS_ID.dkr.ecr.REGION.amazonaws.com

This issue usually happens when you take a lot of time without accessing your CLI terminal. For this reason when you come back to your CLI, you need to login again.

For your case MacOs/Linux, Please use the following command to establish a fresh login session.

aws ecr get-login-password --region [Your Region] | sudo docker login --username AWS --password-stdin [IAM User Id].dkr.ecr.[Your Region].amazonaws.com

Please replace the placeholders with your relevant values.

A warning: aws ecr get-login does not appear to connect to AWS servers and appears to work even if you have bad AWS access/secret keys or even if you have forgotten to enter your AWS access/secret keys as environmental variables.

It will still happily give you a long password without providing an error. The message, then, you get from AWS is an expiration error instead of a more correct and helpful "authorization incorrect."

Note: Using aws-cli version 1.11.112.

Another solution variant for this particular error is a missing --registry-ids argument to the aws ecr get-login invocation.

The full get-login invocation would be something like:

eval "$(aws ecr get-login --no-include-email \
  --region us-east-1 \
  --registry-ids 11223344 \
)"

Please substitute your own region and registry ID values.

The question mentions that login had succeeded but docker push had failed.

The two possible reasons for the above condition are:

1. The AWS credentials are expired. Go to the AWS console or use aws-cli to generate a new pair. Store them in the environment or in ~/.aws/credentials file.
2. You might be using the wrong AWS credentials from a different account. Temporarily set AWS_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, and AWS_REGION with credentials of account where ECR repository exists.

> ECR repositories which are associated with an account works only with those account's credentials

Always make sure which AWS credentials are being used for the operation. Check environment variables and ~/.aws/credentials to confirm it.

This is what worked for me. I was using Docker for Windows. The problem appeared to be with the docker configuration. In particular with how the credentials were stored. If you look in ~/.docker/config.json, it might look something like this:

{
        "auths": {
                "XXXX.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com": {}
        },
        "HttpHeaders": {
                "User-Agent": "Docker-Client/19.03.5 (windows)"
        },
        "credsStore": "desktop",
        "stackOrchestrator": "swarm"
}

if you delete credStore line and try login in again with

docker login -u AWS -p "XXX...the really long password ehre..XXX" https://XXXX.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com

, you will should see something like this

{
        "auths": {
                "XXXX.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com": {
                        "auth": "XXX...the really long password ehre..XXX"
                }
        },
        "HttpHeaders": {
                "User-Agent": "Docker-Client/19.03.5 (windows)"
        },
        "stackOrchestrator": "swarm"
}

Annoyingly, I have to do this each time, as docker adds the credStore line back in again

I was getting this error because I have multiple profiles. The profile flagged solved it for me:

$(aws ecr get-login --no-include-email --region us-west-2 --profile xxxx)

In my case the bellow script worked for aws version aws-cli/2.0.8

    aws ecr get-login-password --region us-east-1 | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin ${aws_account_id}.dkr.ecr.${region}.amazonaws.com

aws ecr get-login seems not to be supported anymore.

I had to use get-login-password instead:

aws ecr get-login-password --region <region> | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin <ACCESS_ID>.dkr.ecr.<REGION>.amazonaws.com

For AWS CLI 2.0 use the following

 aws ecr get-login-password \
    --region <region> \
| docker login \
    --username AWS \
    --password-stdin <aws_account_id>.dkr.ecr.<region>.amazonaws.com
