Hello Podsters, Trying to pull from container-registry.oracle.com using podman instead of docker but auth does not seem to work right for container-registry.oracle.com from podman, while it does work as advertised from docker pull command. Have a look at this and LMK if this is a bug, will be fixed, etc. Note that I previously followed the step of logging in to container-registry.oracle.com at the URL as described here https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E75728/html/oracle-registry-server.html . Then I try to pull images using podman (does not authenticate properly - apparently - see below): --- ubuntu@ubuntu-ThinkPad-P72:~/Desktop$ podman pull container-registry.oracle.com/os/oraclelinux:7.6 Trying to pull container-registry.oracle.com/os/oraclelinux:7.6... unable to retrieve auth token: invalid username/password Error: error pulling image "container-registry.oracle.com/os/oraclelinux:7.6": unable to pull container-registry.oracle.com/os/oraclelinux:7.6: unable to pull image: Error initializing source docker://container-registry.oracle.com/os/oraclelinux:7.6: unable to retrieve auth token: invalid username/password --- now I've previously logged in to URL as instructed and tied an 8-hour auth to my oracle single sign-on --- ubuntu@ubuntu-ThinkPad-P72:~/Desktop$ podman login container-registry.oracle.com Username: gilbert(a)orabuntu-lxc.com Password: Error: error logging into "container-registry.oracle.com": invalid username/password ubuntu@ubuntu-ThinkPad-P72:~/Desktop$ podman login container-registry.oracle.com Username: gilbert(a)orabuntu-lxc.com Password: Error: error logging into "container-registry.oracle.com": invalid username/password --- I try a couple times using the password and also the password enclosed in " ". Neither authenticates successfully using podman --- --- Now I try same login using docker and authentication succeeds (note my pw has upper/lower case, numerals, and special character) --- ubuntu@ubuntu-ThinkPad-P72:~/Desktop$ sudo docker login container-registry.oracle.com Username: gilbert(a)orabuntu-lxc.com Password: Login Succeeded --- Trying a podman pull again after the successful docker login - no go does not auth --- ubuntu@ubuntu-ThinkPad-P72:~/Desktop$ podman pull container-registry.oracle.com/os/oraclelinux:7.6 Trying to pull container-registry.oracle.com/os/oraclelinux:7.6... open /home/ubuntu/.docker/config.json: permission denied Error: error pulling image "container-registry.oracle.com/os/oraclelinux:7.6": unable to pull container-registry.oracle.com/os/oraclelinux:7.6: unable to pull image: Error initializing source docker://container-registry.oracle.com/os/oraclelinux:7.6: error getting username and password: error reading JSON file "/home/ubuntu/.docker/config.json": open /home/ubuntu/.docker/config.json: permission denied --- Try a pull using docker auth that has been set and it works fine --- ubuntu@ubuntu-ThinkPad-P72:~/Desktop$ sudo docker pull container-registry.oracle.com/os/oraclelinux:7.6 7.6: Pulling from os/oraclelinux 04e172e76262: Pull complete Digest: sha256:a6ee3b4c6a52a529a6de77bb25c3d0a99e99e1ad81cd936cd14b100288ffe246 Status: Downloaded newer image for container-registry.oracle.com/os/oraclelinux:7.6 ubuntu@ubuntu-ThinkPad-P72:~/Desktop$ So is this an issue with podman that it is not able to handle the authentication to Oracle container registry, whereas docker can and does ? If yes can we file this as an enhancement request or bug fix ? Thanks Gilbert
