Why am I getting this error: ERROR [internal] load metadata – Docker

I am a Docker noob and am trying to run the make dev-services script, declared in the skaffold.yml file (I exchanged image and sha names with xxx):

- name: dev-services
  build:
    tagPolicy:
      inputDigest: {}
    local:
      push: false
      useBuildkit: true
    artifacts:
    - image: gcr.io/xxx/service-base
      context: .
    - image: gcr.io/xxx/api
      context: server/api/
      requires:
        - image: gcr.io/xxx/service-base
          alias: service_base
    - image: gcr.io/xxx/media
      context: server/media/app
      requires:
        - image: gcr.io/xxx/service-base
          alias: service_base
  deploy:
    kustomize:
      paths:
        - ./k8s/local
        - ./server/api/k8s/development
        - ./server/media/k8s/development

When I run it, I get this error:

Anyone know what might be the problem here?
Might it be the google container registry?
I’m using Minikube. Is there a Minikube – or Docker – registry that could try? If so, what would I need to change in the skaffold.yaml file?

Thanks a lot in advance 🙂

    The error:

    failed to solve with frontend dockerfile.v0: failed to create LLB definition: unexpected status code [manifests xxx]: 401 Unauthorized

    indicates that Docker was unable to get authorization for one of your GCR repositories. Docker will normally get this information from your gcloud settings. There’s a couple of reasons why this may fail:

    • You haven’t configured Docker for accessing GCR. See the GCR documentation for how to configure access.
    • Your account doesn’t have permission to access GCR. See the GCR documentation on configuring access control.
    • Your login details have expired or been revoked. Use gcloud auth login to re-login.
    • You have multiple accounts, and you’re using the wrong account. Try gcloud auth list to see your current accounts. You can use gcloud config set account xxx to set the active account, or set the environment CLOUDSDK_CORE_ACCOUNT to set an account for the duration of a session.

    run sudo chown -R [User] $(pwd)

    Then run your container with root permission (i.e: sudo)

    EX:

    sudo docker-compose build --no-cache ContainerName

    I was also facing the same error, the reason was a typo in the base image, you can check if you have any typo in the dockerfile

    running this command rm ~/.docker/config.json before the build worked for me.

    I got some clue from this thread, however, just want to be precise about the steps you must pay attentions.

    1. Open the Docker Desktop and make sure, you screen looks like this enter image description here
    2. Click Apply & Restart – here is the trick, it doesn’t restart infact, follow next step
    3. Right click on the Docker app Icon on the taskbar > click Restart and wait enter image description here
    4. Now retry the ps script, hope this will work for you.
