Error response from daemon: manifest for ansible/ansible:latest not found

[kenorb]

Repro steps:

1. Run: docker pull ansible/ansible

The above command results in:

Using default tag: latest
Error response from daemon: manifest for ansible/ansible:latest not found

I understand I should use a different tag, but this command appears on the project page at https://hub.docker.com/r/ansible/ansible/ in the "Docker Pull Command" block.

Should the command be corrected on that page?

Look at the tags available - https://hub.docker.com/r/ansible/ansible/tags/

Based on the tag you want, here is an example of pulling default.

docker pull ansible/ansible:default

The documentation could be clearer IMHO.

Hi @nickwinn , This seems to be an issue with other images as well ex:-

• Run

  docker pull kindest/node

• Output

  Error response from daemon: manifest for kindest/node:latest not found: manifest unknown: manifest unknown

I tried using default tag as well but no success

• Run

  docker pull kindest/node:default

• Output

  Error response from daemon: manifest for kindest/node:default not found: manifest unknown: manifest unknown

Check the tags in - https://hub.docker.com/r/ansible/ansible/tags And run the latest command - docker pull ansible/ansible:ubuntu1404

Cannot add more to that! Why not say "tag is not found, please check the registry or fix the tag", but instead some scary message about manifests is printed which confuses people for years already!

no tag bug

➜  ~ docker pull xgqfrms/node.js
Using default tag: latest
Error response from daemon: manifest for xgqfrms/node.js:latest not found: manifest unknown: manifest unknown

➜  ~ docker pull xgqfrms/node.js:default
Error response from daemon: manifest for xgqfrms/node.js:default not found: manifest unknown: manifest unknown

This is not an issue with docker hub. This is an issue with documentation provided by the group working on ansible itself.

Well, https://hub.docker.com/r/travisci/ci-ubuntu-1804 says docker pull travisci/ci-ubuntu-1804 which leads to the same error.

I am getting the same error while running from jenkins. Although, i am able to run container manually from ec-2. Any help woud be appreciable.

SS from docker Hub.

[Lakshmi8080]

The error is because of wrong tag. check the tag in docker hub like 1.0, 2.0 or something, using default worked for me.

well done.

I would partly disagree with that. The docker pull command is "knowingly" trying to fetch the image tagged latest. So for images without such tag, a plain docker pull $x/$y could be avoided, or some hint (e.g. warning sign) should show up.
