[DEPRECATION NOTICE] Docker Image Format v1 and Docker Image manifest version 2, schema 1 support is disabled by default and will be removed in an upcoming release. Suggest the author of docker.io/iron/auth:latest to upgrade the image to the OCI Format or Docker Image manifest v2, schema 2. More information at https://docs.docker.com/go/deprecated-image-specs/

refference to
etcd-io/etcd#17811
maybe we shoulde add a version for iron/auth and iron/mq

[pjfanning]

https://hub.docker.com/r/iron/mq is unmaintained. No images have been published in years.

Yes. I think the error won't go away unless there is an image compliant with OCI standard / Docker v2.

We either:

• Don't test on iron/mq
• Republish a ironmq image that is compliant with OCI standard.
• Reach out the ironmq team

[pjfanning]

I emailed IronMQ support earlier. I'll see if they respond.

I think that's not quiet the same thing:

• the refference issue is because etcd team didn't use v2 format to publish their latest tag.
• this issue is because the docker image is not even maintained in docker hub...

[Roiocam]

I emaile IronMQ support earlier. I'll see if they respond.

Thanks.

In addition, i think ironmq team required users to build the docker image from themself, see:

• https://github.com/iron-io/dockerworker
• https://github.com/iron-io/dockers?tab=readme-ov-file

Do you think this information will be helpful?

[pjfanning]

The code in https://github.com/iron-io/dockerworker is 8/9 years old. Has checked in jars.
We really have to ask ourselves, who would be using this sort of unmaintained stuff and whether Pekko should support it.

[laglangyue]

I git pull and git tag the image, the manifest will changed to schema-v2.

We have some ways to solve it:

1. drop this module
2. git pull, git tag, git push to pekko in dockerhub, This may involve some license issues
3. Waiting for iron to fix it, but I don't think they will because the Dockerhub image has not been maintained for a long time
   so should we
4. just disable the test

I aggre to drop the module.

[raboof]

I agree dropping the module seems reasonable. If someone steps up and offers to revive/maintain the module they can do so outside of the ASF.

Might be worth highlighting on the dev list?

[pjfanning]

IronMQ support suggested trying this env variable.
DOCKER_ENABLE_DEPRECATED_PULL_SCHEMA_1_IMAGE=true

This does not help on my Mac laptop. I found the setting in Docker docs but Googling it doesn't return many matches. Even if it worked, it only buys us a bit of time until Docker drops support for the old image format altogether.
