Hello,

For a demo setup I want to use Anchore for container vulnerability testing. However, I am not able to run the Anchore CLI with the error:

DEBUG:anchorecli.clients.apiexternal:As Account = None DEBUG:urllib3.connectionpool:Starting new HTTP connection (1): localhost:8228 Error: could not access anchore service (user=admin url=http://localhost:8228/v1/): HTTPConnectionPool(host='localhost', port=8228): Max retries exceeded with url: /v1/ (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0x7f585bcc61f0>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 111] Connection refused'))

Please note that I am able to browse the APIs, however:

http://localhost:8228/v1 http://localhost:8228/v1/images/list

Though I don't find any image, at least I can run the API service successfully.

Kindly let me know if I am missing anything.

Hello @cjmakwana, thank you for filing the ticket. Can you share some context by answering the following questions

1. Where is anchore-engine deployed - docker-compose or k8s
2. What is the exact anchore-cli command used and where was it executed from
3. Was there any additional configuration for anchore-cli such as environment variables overriding the url, username, password etc
