Podman-compose tries to pull local images from docker registry

[rishacha]

My compose file -

services:
  app:
      # image: python-pdm-dev
      build:
        context: .
        dockerfile: Dockerfile
      platform: linux/amd64
      stdin_open: true # docker run -i
      tty: true        # docker run -t
      env_file:
        - .env
      volumes:
        - ./:/app

Logs -

Solution -

Solved by - @yuusou

1. SSH into the podman machine - podman machine ssh
2. Edit the following file /etc/containers/registries.conf.d/999-podman-machine.conf (sudo nano /etc/containers/registries.conf.d/999-podman-machine.conf)
3. It should look like this -

# Issue #11489: make sure that we can inject a custom registries.conf
# file on the system level to force a single search registry.
# The remote client does not yet support prompting for short-name
# resolution, so we enforce a single search registry (i.e., [docker.io](http://docker.io/))
# as a workaround.
# unqualified-search-registries=["[docker.io](http://docker.io/)"]
# Change the above line to -

unqualified-search-registries=["localhost"]

4. Make the changes by adding only localhost in the array and removing docker.io
5. Save the file
6. Restart the machine

Voila !

I just installed Podman Desktop Version 1.19.1 on my new arm64 Macbook and come across this issue. The solution does not work for me unfortunately.

Same issue. I feel this should be added to podman compose docs or fixed.
