Is there anything I could do to fix the warning "Failure when attempting to lookup auth config" ?

[saoj]

Hello,

I'm running Testcontainer with maven on Ubuntu 17.04. It works but I get the warning below in bold every time. Is there something that I can do to fix it? Thanks so much!

I'm getting the same error when running Testcontainer in a GitLab CI/CD environment (docker in docker):

And then tests fail. Is there anything I can do?

[rnorth]

That particular message is not a problem - it's simply saying that you don't have any credentials set for quay.io, which is correct. That warning is only expected to be helpful if you have docker images in an authenticated registry and there's an authentication problem.

Please disregard that and look at other possible causes if you have test failures!

I think we'd welcome a PR to clarify the wording for this log statement!

I also am having this problem when using Bitbucket piplines,

Figured out my problem.. upgrade. see also ticket #700

[binkley]

Hi @rnorth ! Agreed, the warning is "harmless", meaning, nothing is actually wrong.

This does, however, create extra build output which devs need to read and think about.

Is there a way to suppress it? A property setting or something ... ?

I'm scanning GitHub, and to look at the source of the warning (

testcontainers-java/core/src/main/java/org/testcontainers/utility/RegistryAuthLocator.java

Line 135 in 9c320ee

log.warn("Failure when attempting to lookup auth config (dockerImageName: {}, configFile: {}. Falling back to docker-java default behaviour. Exception message: {}",

), as well as the callers of lookupAuthConfig, nothing obvious jumps out at me.

[johnlabarge]

Seems that maybe 'warn' is too important a level for this message in most circumstances. I have several of these warnings pertaining to Ryuk which I'm not expecting I'm using.

[rnorth]

I think we could consider changing it. Perhaps to INFO level, plus make the message clearer that this is probably not a problem.

WDYT?

[DevilzOwn]

Is this already done? Shall I make it info and raise the PR?

[rnorth]

@DevilzOwn I don't think it's been changed. If you'd be able to have a look and raise a small PR if necessary, I'd be grateful! Thanks
