Kubernetes cannot pull image from private docker image repository

Question

I have problem with kubernetes (minikube) and pull images from local image repository on docker. Docker repository was created:

docker run --entrypoint htpas         


        

Answer 1

The problem is with the image pull policy - you have set this to Always (the default setting). This means that the Docker deamon always tries to pull the image from the outer Docker registry - you want to use the local one instead.

Try to add --image-pull-policy=Never when creating a deployment.

A good tutorial of using locally created images is here (it helped me):
