Can't push image to Amazon ECR - fails with “no basic auth credentials”

Question

I\'m trying to push a docker image to an Amazon ECR registry. I\'m using docker client Docker version 1.9.1, build a34a1d5. I use aws ecr get-login --regi

Answer 1

If it helps anyone...

My problem was that I had to use the --profile option in order to authenticate with the proper profile from the credentials file.

Next, I had ommitted the --region [region_name] command, which also gave the "no basic auth credentials" error.

The solution for me was changing my command from this:

aws ecr get-login

To this:

aws --profile [profile_name] ecr get-login --region [region_name]

Example:

aws --profile foo ecr get-login --region us-east-1

Hope that helps someone!
