Error Knowledge Base DOCKER no_such_image

Error: No such image: <image-id>

Docker cannot find that image locally, so the image ID or tag is wrong, was removed, or was never pulled onto this machine.

What This Error Means

Docker cannot find that image locally, so the image ID or tag is wrong, was removed, or was never pulled onto this machine.

How to Fix It

List tags and confirm the tag exists (registry UI/API varies by registry).

Check platform/arch and try an explicit platform pull:docker pull --platform linux/amd64 <image:tag>

Ensure the repository path is correct and you are pulling from the intended registry.

Why It Happens

The tag does not exist in the repository.

The image exists but does not include a manifest for your OS/arch.

You are referencing the wrong registry or repository path.

How to Verify

Pull the corrected tag/platform and confirm it succeeds.

Run docker image inspect <image:tag> after a successful pull.

Examples

Error: No such image: <image-id>

Prevention Tips

Publish multi-arch images when you support multiple platforms.

Use explicit tags and avoid relying on latest.
