"pass": executable file not found in $PATH:

[chain710]

• debian 11.7
• Docker version 24.0.4, build 3713ee1
• docker-credential-pass (github.com/docker/docker-credential-helpers) v0.7.0

my docker config look like this

cat ~/.docker/config.json
{
        "credsStore": "pass",
        "auths": {}
}

docker-credential-pass exists in following directories:

• /sbin
• /bin
• /usr/bin
• /usr/local/bin

dockerd /proc/N/environ is

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin

docker login error

Error saving credentials: error storing credentials - err: exit status 1, out: `pass not initialized: exec: "pass": executable file not found in $PATH:`

Also using Debian (on WSL2):

I found that the 'executable file not found in $PATH' message also appears, when the executable is not yet executable.

I.e. you could try sudo chmod +x docker-credential-pass and see, if that resolves the issue.
