Hi, have this:
> Unable to find image ‘local\_discourse/app:latest’ locally
> docker: Error response from daemon: pull access denied for local\_discourse/app, repository does not exist or may require ‘docker login’: denied: requested access to the resource is denied.

I had a look at the code! Seems like the launcher uses local\_discourse/app (wich not exists) as image if the variable $run\_image is empty! This has the following code:
```plaintext
cat $config_file | $docker_path run $user_args --rm -i -a stdin -a stdout $image ruby -e \
"require 'yaml'; puts YAML.load(STDIN.readlines.join)['run_image']"
```

Are you behind some kind of firewall?
Does
```plaintext
docker run hello-world
```
work?

I have the same exact problem, and have gone through the suggested steps. Debian 12 bookworm, docker installed from apt, 20.10.24+dfsg1, Bump.

So, this solved the problem?

Nah, that’s just my firewall’s configuration in case it’s relevant, I’m as clueless still as to what is causing this.. as my Debian is freshly installed.

Well, as I said, it tries to pull the image `local_discourse/app:lates` if the variable `$run_image` is empty!
