Recently, i ran into a issue where pushing images to the docker registry after a build fails
Pushing image docker-registry.default.svc:5000/simple-go-build/simple-go:latest ...
Registry server Address:
Registry server User Name: serviceaccount
Registry server Email: [email protected]
Registry server Password: <<non-empty>>
error: build error: Failed to push image: received unexpected HTTP status: 500 Internal Server Error
Registry pods logs show permission denied
err.code=UNKNOWN err.detail="filesystem: mkdir /registry/docker/registry/v2/repositories/simple-go-build/simple-go/_uploads/c34415b4-c6d8-42ba-9854-aee449efd984: permission denied"
One of the Red Hat solutions article suggested to verify the file ownership of the files, directories in the volume and compare it to the uid of the registry
Changing the owner recursively to the uid of the registry, fixed the issue
root@master# chown -R 1001 /exports/registry/docker/
