Docker auth.config not working anymore in 1.9.0

[dani]

Nomad version

Nomad v1.9.0
BuildDate 2024-10-10T07:13:43Z
Revision 7ad36851ec02f875e0814775ecf1df0229f0a615

Operating system and Environment details

AlmaLinux 9, using pre-built amd64 bin

Issue

Having docker plugin configured with an auth config like

plugin "docker" {
  config {
    auth {
      config = "/opt/nomad/docker/auth.json"
    }
[...]

With /opt/nomad/docker/auth.json looking like

{
  "auths": {
    "oci.ehtrace.local": {
      "auth": "XXXXXXX"
    }
  }
}

Doesn't work anymore : allocation fails to start with

Failed to pull `oci.ehtrace.local/kafka-connect:3.8.0-45.0.0-SNAPSHOT-1`: Error response from daemon: Head "https://oci.ehtrace.local/v2/kafka-connect/manifests/3.8.0-45.0.0-SNAPSHOT-1": no basic auth credentials

The exact same setup was working fine in 1.8.4 (and previous versions)

Reproduction steps

Try to start an allocation from a registrry requiring authentication, with credentials provided in auth.config

Expected Result

Credentials should be passed to Docker

Actual Result

Job file (if appropriate)

Any job file is affected

Running into the same issue in our environment.

GCP VM's running nomad 1.9.0 pulling from GCP artifact repo

Failed to pull `REDACTED`: Error response from daemon: Get "REDACTED": denied: Unauthenticated request. Unauthenticated requests do not have permission "artifactregistry.repositories.downloadArtifacts" on resource "REDACTED" (or it may not exist)

This is using a GCP service account that has the IAM permissions required for this. Previous nomad versions were working correctly.

Rolling back the nomad client versions back to 1.8.4 resolves the issue

I am having the same issue here.

plugin "docker" {
    config {
        auth {
            config = "/etc/nomad.d/.docker-creds"

        }
    }
}

Nomad 1.8.4 the above works, bumping to 1.9.0 results in:

Failed to pull `quay.io/our-repo/app:0.0.1`: Error response from daemon: unauthorized: access to the requested resource is not authorized

Hi,
I got the same - I had to do the downgrade to 1.8.3 to bring back my images to running state....
But I am running insecure internal registry and no idea why Nomad is adding https:// prefix to it and ignores the fact that this repository is declared as secure in docker configuration.

I did simple check from cli only with docker:

docker pull 192.168.10.10:5005/tools/fabio:1.6.3

and this works perfect - same image provided in nomad structure:

image = "192.168.10.10:5005/tools/fabio:1.6.3"

in logs I can see that "https://" prefix is added - and error occurs that basic auth is not set.
More over - I added auth section with user and password for this job - but still it failed with same error.

Same issue here. Downgrading to 1.8.4 and docker auth is once again functional.

Same issue here, docker pull works in machine but when nomad tries to pull it, gets unauthorized error

Hey all, just wanting to let you know that the issue is being looked at and worked on, and we'll provide a fix soon. Thanks for reporting this!

Me too was getting similar issues with Nomad having a hard time to pull docker images.
Worked ok on all versions <=1.8.4.

With 1.9.0 upgrade, nomad clients randomly started throwing errors, randomly because it was sometimes working sometimes not, I didn't have any other quick options to investigate so I downgraded back to 1.8.4 and breaking everything even more because of raft version mismatch on nomad servers.

Anyway, on the original issue my errors were:

   2024-10-11T12:21:04.920Z [ERROR] client.alloc_runner.task_runner: running driver failed: 
alloc_id=c7245a90-b9d5-85fd-6508-6ba37f711c82 task=dashboard-ui 
error="Failed to pull `localhost/dashboard-ui:1.0.150`: 
Error response from daemon: pull access denied for localhost/dashboard-ui, 
repository does not exist or may require 'docker login': denied: requested access to the resource is denied"

    2024-10-11T11:39:09.335Z [ERROR] client.alloc_runner.task_runner: running driver failed: 
alloc_id=4cbf8384-d01d-5353-0aa8-5c790f8f28ad task=llm-arbiter 
error="failed to fetch docker daemon info: 
Error response from daemon: client version 1.46 is too new. Maximum supported API version is 1.45"

My nomad config on both server/client agents looks like this:

plugin "docker" {
  config {
    auth {
      config = "/nomad/etc/docker-credentials.json"
    }
...
}

Hey everyone, we merged the fix and it will be released with 1.9.1.

Hey everyone, we merged the fix and it will be released with 1.9.1.

I'm glad I finally decided to check this project repo, I have racked my brain on this since for a few days now.

Thanks for getting a fix in! Reverting to 1.8.4 worked for me like others suggested.

[shantanugadgil]

I assume this is not cloud specific and the fixes will work/consider AWS ECR? (We are hitting the issue for AWS ECR private repos).

Ofcourse, switching back to v1.8.4 makes things work again! 🥹

[pkazmierczak]

I assume this is not cloud specific

It is not.

Unpinning now that 1.9.1 has shipped.
