I built a Docker image that I pushed to Docker Hub under my account and removed locally after. But when I try to pull it, it throws the following error:
Error response from daemon: pull access denied for mightyspaj/dockerfile-assignment-1, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login'
I'm logged into the same account that owns the repository for this image and can perform other tasks (such as pushing) perfectly fine. The repository also definitely exists on Docker Hub, yet it fails when I try to pull it.
I've tried the following things:
Logging out of my account and back in again
Renaming config.json and regenerating it
Running an isolated Docker container with docker run -it --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro docker sh, then logging into my account and attempting to pull the image
Deleting and recreating the repository
All of these things still produce the same error. I'm baffled.
To note, both my client and engine versions are 17.12.0-ce. My OS is Ubuntu 17.10 (64-bit).

I could fix the same issue only when I made the repository public. Make sure the repository is public then this is the set of instructions I followed in command line:
Once logout from docker hub and login again.
1- docker logout
2- docker login --username=YOURUSERNAME
Enter password when asked
3- docker pull repositoryName"/"imageName[:tag]
if "tag" is not included the default value will be "latest".
Then check the images by docker images command to check if its been pulled.
After pulling is done I made the repository private again.
This solution is only valid on private docker repositories!!
First try to login on your private repo e.g:
docker login dockerrepo.example.com
Then
If you build new image with dockerfile based on image in your private repository then you must prefix your base image with private repository url:
FROM PRIVATE_REPO_URL + IMAGE_INFO
sample:
PRIVATE_REPO_URL --> dockerrepo.example.com
BASE_IMAGE --> samples/java/jdk:1.6
Your dockerfile look like this:
FROM dockerrepo.example.com/samples/java/jdk:1.6
While pushing the docker image (after successful login) from my host I am getting "unauthorized: authentication required".
Details below.
-bash-4.2# docker login --username=asamba --email=anand.sambamoorthy#gmail.com

Any help is appreciated, please let me know if you need further info. I did the push with -f as well. No luck!
You'll need to log in to Docker.
Step 1: log in to docker hub
Based on #KaraPirinc's comment, in Docker version 17 in order to log in:
docker login -u username --password-stdin
Then enter your password when asked.
Step 2: create a repository in the docker hub.
Let's say "mysqlserver:sql".
docker push <user username>/mysqlserver:sql
OK! never mind; I found the solution. with 403 Suspected that the HTTP is not going to the right URL.
Change the file which has the login credentials stored the ~/.docker/config.json from the default generated of
{
"auths": {
"docker.io": {
"auth": "XXXXXXXXXXXXX",
"email": "x.y#gmail.com"
}
}
}
to - Note the change from docker.io -> index.docker.io/v1. That is the change.
{
"auths": {
"https://index.docker.io/v1/": {
"auth": "XXXXXXXXXXXXX",
"email": "x.y#gmail.com"
}
}
}
Hope that helps.
Note that the auth field should be 'username:password" base64 encoded.
for example: "username:password" base64 encoded is "dXNlcm5hbWU6cGFzc3dvcmQ="
so your file would contain:
"auth": "dXNlcm5hbWU6cGFzc3dvcmQ="
The solution you posted is not working for me...
This is what works for me:
Create the repository with the desired name.
When committing the image, name the image like the repository, including the username <dockerusername>/desired-name. For example, radu/desired-name.
if you are using heroku, be sure you did not forget to "heroku container:login" before pushing.
The problem newbies face is that we tend to treat docker hub repository just like a maven repository and think that it might contain many a different files, folders and other contents.
A docker repository on the other hand is just a single image, it does not contain anything else. It can hold different versions of the same image, but its going to contain just one image.
So, name your repository on docker hub the same name as the image you want to push into it, and use your dockerhub username as prefix. For eg, if your username is myusername and your image name is docker-whale , make sure to name your dockerhub repository as docker-whale and use the below commands to tag and push your image to repository:
docker logout # to make sure you're logged out and not cause any clashes
docker tag <imageId> myusername/docker-whale # use :1.0.0 for specific version, default is 'latest'
docker login --username=myusername # use the username/pwd to login to docker hub
docker push myusername/docker-whale # use :1.0.0 for pushing specific version, default is 'latest'
I had the same problem but i fixed it with push with specified url.
as: docker login -u https://index.docker.io/v1/
console output:
The push refers to a repository [docker.io/<username>/richcity]

I was running into a similar issue with a similarly unhelpful error message, but it turned out to be because I was trying to push an image that I had built against a docker-machine managed instance.
When I logged into the instance itself, did docker login and docker push everything worked fine.
In case it helps anyone, I managed to resolve this with the following command at the prompt:
az acr login -n MyContainerName
After this, I could run docker push successfully.
Though the standard process is to login and then push to docker registry, trick to get over this particular problem is to login by providing username and password in same line.
So :
docker login -u xxx -p yyy sampledockerregistry.com/myapp
docker push sampledockerregistry.com/myapp
Works
whereas
docker login sampledockerregistry.com
username : xxx
password : yyy
Login Succeeded
docker push sampledockerregistry.com/myapp
Fails
Even I logged in and checked all the configuration, it still does not work !!!
It turned out that when I build my docker, I forget to put my username before the repo name
docker build docker-meteor-build
(build successfully)
And then when I pushed to my repository, I used
docker push myname/docker-meteor-build
It will show the unauthorized authentication required
So, solution is then name of build and the push should be exactly the same
docker build myname/docker-meteor-build
docker push myname/docker-meteor-build
Here the solution for my case ( private repos, free account plan)
https://success.docker.com/Datacenter/Solve/Getting_%22unauthorized%3A_authentication_required%22_when_trying_to_push_image_to_DTR
The image build name to push has to have the same name of the repos.
Example:
repos on docker hub is: accountName/resposName
image build name "accountName/resposName" -> docker build -t accountName/resposName
then type
docker push accountName/resposName:latest
That's all.
My problem was an invalid Authorization token after 5 minutes.
The push took more than 5 minutes because of the image size.
I've fixed it by increasing the "Authorization token duration" to 10 minutes.
If you are pushing a new private image for the first time, make sure your subscription supports this extra image.
Docker allows you to have 6 private images named, even if you only pay for 5, but not to push that 6th image. The lack of an informative message is confusing and irritating.
What worked for me was to create a new repository and rename the image with
$ docker tag image_id myname/server:latest
Make sure you have more slots for private images.
In my case I converted a user into an organization and it lost it's one free private image, so previous pushes that worked, no longer worked.
Same problem here, during pushing image:
unauthorized: authentication required
What I did:
docker login --username=yourhubusername --email=youremail#company.com
Which it printed:
--email is deprecated (but login succeeded still)
Solution: use the latest login syntax.
docker login
It will ask for both username and password interactively. Then the image push just works.
Even after using the new syntax, my ~/.docker/config.json looks like this after logged in:
{
"auths": {
"https://index.docker.io/v1/": {}
},
"credsStore": "osxkeychain"
}
So the credential is in macOS' keychain.
Try docker logout first, then relogin with docker login
You can mv the xxx/.docker/config.json file somewhere for handle it.
Then try to login again for create new config.json file.
#mv xx/.docker/config.json xx/.docker/config_old.json
#docker login https://index.docker.io/v1/

I had a similar problem.
Error response from daemon: Get https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/hadolint/hadolint/manifests/latest: unauthorized: incorrect username or password
I found out out that even if I login successfully with the docker login command, any pull failed.
I tried to clean up the ~/.docker/config.json but nothing improved.
Looking in the config file I've seen that the credentials were not saved there but in a "credsStore": "secretservice".
In Linux this happen to be the seahorse or Passwords and Keys tool.
I checked there and I cleanup all the docker hub login.
After this a new docker login worked as expected.
in your configuration file ~/.docker/config.json add
{
"auths": {
"https://index.docker.io/v1/": {
"auth": "XXXXXXXXXXXXX",
"email": "my_email#gmail.com"
}
}
}
where XXXXX is base64 encoding of your username:password (the : is included) of https://hub.docker.com
in my case i had the same error with a pull. the problem (under windows) was provoked by double docker running process, so a kill them all and restart one service and it works .
I have received similar error for sudo docker push /sudo docker pull on ecr repository.This is because aws cli installed in my user(abc) and docker installed in root user.I have tried to run sudo docker push on my user(abc)
Fixed this by installed aws cli in root , configured aws using aws configure in root and run sudo docker push to ecr on root user
If you running windows 7 docker Registry
Start **Docker Quick Start terminal** run (this terminal enables connection ) Until you pushed images , that will keep token alive .
Login
docker login
Make sure you tag the image with username
docker build -f Dockerfile -t 'username'/imagename
push image
docker image push username/imagename
Note: image name all lowercase
I tried all the methods I can find online and failed. Then I read this post and get some ideas from #Alex answer. Then I search about ""credsStore": "osxkeychain"" which is used in my config.json. The I follow this link https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/login/ to logout and then login again. Finally, I can push my image successfully.
I had the same problem and I can fix it.
change the ~/.docker/config.json file as below
{
"auths": {
"XxX": {
"auth": "XxX"
}
}
}
and do not forget to restart docker service.
service docker restart
enjoy
i was facing the same problem with Heroku and Docker, the solution was
docker login
docker build . -t <project_name>
heroku container:login
heroku container:push web -a <project_name>
I had the same problem but I fixed it with push with a specified URL:
docker login -u https://index.docker.io/v1/
Just curious to know what could be the cause for this issue?
Old post but had same issue and couldn't find the answer.
NOTE: the Docker tag is case sensitive to Azure loginserver name.
I was uploading to Azure container. Container was named "LearnContainer81"
Loginserver was "learncontainer81.azurecr.io"
When I did the tag in Docker, I did it with "LearnContainer81.azurecr.io/X" and it gives unauthorised. Did tag again in lowercase as per Loginserver for Azure. This then uploaded fine.
Its the problem with the proxy.
Turn off the VPN if you are working on any.

I'm using my self-hosted docker registry, where I terminate HTTPS/SSL first on another server (such as nginx or trafficserver), and then pass the traffic to registry over non-encrypted HTTP. After a lot of research, I managed to get it to work.
i) the problem is caused by not having X-Forwarded-Proto -header set in PATCH -requests, resulting in 401 error. See https://github.com/distribution/distribution/issues/1177#issuecomment-155718420
ii) nginx version 18 (and lower such as Ubuntu Bionic and Focal) seems not to pass the
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
for PATCH (POST works ok), but nginx version 21 works ok.
Also Apache Trafficserver seems to pass the headers properly, once enabled.
Make sure your docker repositry name matches your local docker repo name.
e.g lets say if you local repo name "kavashgar/nodjsapp"
then your should also have a repo names "kavashgar" in docker hub
