I am trying to install a sample application using the git option in OpenShift 4.7.2 (CodeReady containers 1.24) and I keep getting the below error while openshift tries to build the image to be deployed.
Failed to pull image
"image-registry.openshift-image-registry.svc:5000/employee-ecosys/person-service:latest": rpc error:
code = Unknown
desc = Error reading manifest latest in image-registry.openshift-image-registry.svc:5000/employee-ecosys/person-service:
manifest unknown: manifest unknown
The application person-service is a simple crud application build using spring-boot and uses in-memory h2 as its database. Github repo is here
Some checks to perform: Are the image registry pods running?
Is your specific image created?
Do you get any images?
"latest" is kind of a special tag. You should never manually tag an image as "latest". Openshift will consider the "latest" tag to be the newest image, regardless of what tag it has.
I am not familiar with the git deploy method. I have personally very little experience with any s2i builds. I normally use a git repo for the openshift/kubernetes resources and a git repo for the code (they can be the same but separated in the tree by folder structure) and use a pipeline or manually build the image and push it to a registry somewhere and then let openshift pull it from there.
