How to Solve Openshift “Failed to pull image, unauthorized: authentication required”

Leave a Comment / Openshift, Programming / By

Just recently got an unique error, this happens when my application is pulling an image within a different Openshift namespace. In this example, im creating my application in “xyz-project” and try to pull image from “abc-project”. Here’s the complete error detail,

Failed to pull image "image-registry.openshift-image-registry.svc:5000/abc-project/image01@sha256:xxxxxxxxxxxx": 
rpc error: code = Unknown desc = Error reading manifest sha256:xxxxxxxxxxxx in 
image-registry.openshift-image-registry.svc:5000/abc-project/image01: unauthorized: authentication required

Solution for this is quite easy, actually we need to give a specific access right in order for “xyz-project” to be able to pull image from “abc-project”.

oc policy add-role-to-user system:image-puller system:serviceaccount:xyz-project:default -n abc-project

Hope it helps.

There are times where we want to display list of DC within one Namespace, and want to see what are the images involved within it. We can do that easily by using a simple OC command like below,

oc get dc -n  <namespace> --no-headers -o template \
     --template='{{range.items}}{{.metadata.namespace}}{{"/"}}{{.metadata.name}}{{" - "}}
     {{(index .spec.template.spec.containers 0).image}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}'
