Docker Push to Private Repo instantly returns "Connection Refused"


Using the docker API spec V2 I am trying to implement a simple Docker Registry over HTTP. Whenever I run docker push 127.0.0.1:5000/debian I instantly receive the following error.

Using default tag: latest
The push refers to repository [127.0.0.1:5000/debian]
Get "http://127.0.0.1:5000/v2/": dial tcp 127.0.0.1:5000: connect: connection refused

The odd thing is if I make a curl request to the URL it works fine (ditto for web browser)

Also I tried running a local registry via Docker image

docker run -d -p 5000:5000 --name registry registry:2.7

Doing it this way the push is successful so there doesn't appear to be an underlying issue with Docker pushing to an insecure registry.

Here is the code I am using to run a simple registry over HTTP.

package main

    "crypto/sha256"
    "encoding/hex"

)

var LayerPath string

func init() {
    LayerPath = GetTemporaryDirectory()
    fmt.Printf("Saving artifacts to %s\n", LayerPath)
}

func GetTemporaryDirectory() string {
    tempFolder, err := ioutil.TempDir("", "docker_registry")
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    return tempFolder
}

Solution

  • when running docker push any loopback address (localhost, 127.0.01, etc.) refers to the guest OS (in this case Lima VM because I am running Rancher Desktop). Per Lima docs the Host IP is always 192.168.5.2... and sure enough using that IP resulted in a successful image push.
