pull access denied repository does not exist or may require docker login
DockerUbuntu 16.04Docker Problem Overview
I am using Laravel 4.2 with docker. I setup it on local. It worked without any problem but when I am trying to setup online using same procedure then I am getting error:
pull access denied for <projectname>/php, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login'
is it something relevant to create repository here https://cloud.docker.com/ or need to docker login in command?
After days of study I am still not able to figure out what could be the fix in this case and what are the right steps?
I have the complete code. I can paste here if need to check certain parts.
Docker Solutions
Solution 1 - Docker
Please note that the error message from Docker is misleading.
$ docker build deploy/.
Sending build context to Docker daemon 5.632kB
Step 1/16 : FROM rhel7:latest
pull access denied for rhel7, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login'
It says that it may require 'docker login'. I struggled with this. I realized the image does not exist at https://hub.docker.com any more. I hope this helps someone.
Solution 2 - Docker
Just make sure to write the docker name correctly!
In my case, I wrote (notice the extra 'u'):
FROM ubunutu:16.04
The correct docker name is:
FROM ubuntu:16.04
Solution 3 - Docker
I had the same issue. In my case it was a private registry. So I had to create a secret as shown here
and then we have to add the image pull secret to the deployment.yaml file as shown below.
pods/private-reg-pod.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: private-reg
spec:
containers:
- name: private-reg-container
image: <your-private-image>
imagePullSecrets:
- name: regcred
Solution 4 - Docker
The message usually comes when you put the wrong image name. Please check your image if it exists on the Docker repository with the correct tag. It helped me.
docker run -d -p 80:80 --name ngnix ngnix:latest
Unable to find image 'ngnix:latest' locally
docker: Error response from daemon: pull access denied for ngnix, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login': denied: requested access to the resource is denied.
See 'docker run --help'.
$ docker run -d -p 80:80 --name nginx nginx:latest
Unable to find image 'nginx:latest' locally
latest: Pulling from library/nginx
Solution 5 - Docker
November 2020 and later
If this error is new, and pulling from Docker Hub worked in the past, note Docker Hub now introduced rate limiting in Nov 2020
You will frequently see messages like:
> Warning: No authentication provided, using CircleCI credentials for pulls from Docker Hub.
From Circle CI and other similar tools that use Docker Hub. Or:
> Error response from daemon: pull access denied for cimg/mongo, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login': denied: requested access to the resource is denied
You'll need to specify the credentials used to fetch the image:
For CircleCI users:
- image: circleci/mongo:4.4.2
# Needed to pull down Mongo images from Docker hub
# Get from https://hub.docker.com/
# Set up at https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/org/sapp
auth:
username: $DOCKERHUB_USERNAME
password: $DOCKERHUB_PASSWORD
Solution 6 - Docker
I solved this by inserting a language at the front of the docker image
FROM python:3.7-alpine
Solution 7 - Docker
I had the same issue
pull access denied for microsoft/mmsql-server-linux, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login': denied: requested access to the resource is denied
Turns out the DockerHub was moved to a different name So I would suggest you re check-in docker hub
Solution 8 - Docker
I had the same error message but for a totally different reason.
Being new to docker, I issued
> docker run -it <crypticalId>
where <crypticalId> was the id of my newly created container.
But, the run command wants the id of an image, not a container.
To start a container, docker wants
> docker start -i <crypticalId>
Solution 9 - Docker
I had this because I inadvertantly remove the AS tag from my first image:
ex:
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:1607-KB4546850-amd64
...
.. etc ...
...
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:1607-KB4546850-amd64
COPY --from=installer ["/dotnet", "/Program Files/dotnet"]
... etc ...
should have been:
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:1607-KB4546850-amd64 AS installer
...
.. etc ...
...
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:1607-KB4546850-amd64
COPY --from=installer ["/dotnet", "/Program Files/dotnet"]
... etc ...
Solution 10 - Docker
I had the same issue when working with docker-composer. In my case it was an Amazon AWS ECR private registry. It seems to be a bug in docker-compose
https://github.com/docker/compose/issues/1622#issuecomment-162988389
After adding the full path "myrepo/myimage" to docker compose yaml
> image: xxxxxxxxx.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/myrepo:myimage
it was all fine.
Solution 11 - Docker
In my case I was using a custom image and docker baked into Minikube on my local machine.
I had specified the pull policy incorrectly:-
imagePullPolicy: Always
But it should have been:-
imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
Because the custom image was only present locally after I'd explicitly built it in the minikube docker environment.
Solution 12 - Docker
If the repository is private you have to assign permissions to download it. You have two options, with the docker login command, or put in ~/.docker/docker.config the file generated once you login.
Solution 13 - Docker
if you have over two stage in the docker build process read this solution: this error message is completely misleading.
if you have a two-stage (context) dockerfile and want to copy some data from the first to the second stage, you must label the first context (ex: build) and access it by that label
#stage(1)
from <image> as build
.
.
#stage(2)
From <image>
copy --from=build /sourceDir /distinationDir
Solution 14 - Docker
If you're downloading from somewhere else than your own registry or docker-hub, you might have to do a separate agreement of terms on their site, like the case with Oracle's docker registry. It allows you to do docker login fine, but pulling the container won't still work until you go to their site and agree on their terms.
Solution 15 - Docker
This error message might possibly indicate something else.
In my case I defined another Docker-Image elsewhere from which the current Docker inherited its settings (docker-compos.yml
):
FROM my_own_image:latest
The error message I got:
qohelet$ docker-compose up
Building web
Step 1/22 : FROM my_own_image:latest
ERROR: Service 'web' failed to build: pull access denied for my_own_image, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login'
Due to a reinstall the previous Docker were gone and I couldn't build my docker using docker-compose up
with this command:
sudo docker build -t my_own_image:latest -f MyOwnImage.Dockerfile .
In your specific case you might have defined your own php-docker.
Solution 16 - Docker
Make sure the image
exists in docker hub. To me, I was trying to pull MongoDB using the command docker run mongodb
which is incorrect. In the docker hub, the image name is mongo
.
Solution 17 - Docker
If you don't have an image with that name locally, docker will try to pull it from docker hub, but there's no such image on docker hub. Or simply try "docker login".
Solution 18 - Docker
I had to run docker pull first, then running docker-compose up again and then it worked.
docker pull index.docker.io/youruser/yourrepo:latest
Solution 19 - Docker
Docker might have lost the authentication data. So you'll have to reauthenticate with your registry provider. With AWS for example:
aws ecr get-login --region us-west-2 --no-include-email
And then copy and paste that resulting "docker login..." to authenticated docker.
Source: Amazon ECR Registeries
Solution 20 - Docker
Try this in your docker-compose.yml file
image: php:rc-zts-alpine
Solution 21 - Docker
If you are using multiple Dockerfiles you should not forget to run build for all of it. That was my case.
Solution 22 - Docker
When I run the command multiple times "docker pull scrapinghub/splash" in Power shell then it solve the issue.
Solution 23 - Docker
if it was caused with AWS EC2 and ECR, due to name issue(happens with beginners!)
Error response from daemon: pull access denied for my-app, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login': denied: requested access to the resource is denied
when using docker pull use Image URI of the image, available in ECR-row itself as Copy URI
docker pull Image_URI
Solution 24 - Docker
I have seen this message and thought something was wrong about my Docker authentication. However, I've realized that Docker only allows 1 private repository per free plan. So it is quite possible that you are trying to pull your private repository and see this error because have not upgraded your plan.
Solution 25 - Docker
Got the same problem but nothing worked. And then I understood I need run .sh
(.ps1
) script first before doing docker-compose
.
So I have the following files:
docker-compose.yml
docker-build.sh
docker-build.ps1
Dockerfile
And I had to first run docker-build.sh
on Unix (Mac) machine or docker-build.ps1
on Windows:
sh docker-build.sh
It will build an image in my case. And only then after an image has been built I can run:
docker-compose up --build
For references. Here is my docker-compose
file:
version: '3.8'
services:
api-service:
image: x86_64/prediction-service:0.8.1
container_name: api-service
expose:
- 8060
ports:
- "8060:80"
And here is docker-build.sh
:
VERSION="0.8.1"
ARCH="x86_64"
APP="prediction-service"
DIR="$( cd "$( dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" )" >/dev/null 2>&1 && pwd )"
docker build -f $DIR/Dockerfile -t $ARCH/$APP:$VERSION .
Solution 26 - Docker
I had misspelled nginx to nignx in Dockerfile
Solution 27 - Docker
In my case the solution was to re-create docker-file through visual studio and all worked perfeclty.
