Hi,  
I’m getting 404 error when pulling docker from docker hub.  
I’m using image id with registry because in CI system I have private registry configured as default one.  
Yesterday, next command worked:

```auto

docker pull registry.hub.docker.com/library/python:3.8

```

today, I’m getting next error

```auto

Error response from daemon: error parsing HTTP 404 response body: invalid character '<' looking for beginning of value: "<!doctype html>\n<html lang=\"en\">\n\n<head>\n <meta charset=\"utf-8\">\n <title>404 : Docker</title>\n
...

```

Has anything changed in docker hub settings recently?  
I have similar issue while pulling other images from [hub.docker.com](http://hub.docker.com).

Hello,

we get the same error since today.

```auto
docker pull registry.hub.docker.com/amazon/aws-efs-csi-driver:778131e
Error response from daemon: error parsing HTTP 404 response body: invalid character '<' looking for beginning of value: "<!doctype html>\n<html lang=\"en\">\n\n<head>\n <meta charset=\"utf-8\">\n <title>404 : Docker</title>\n <meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, initial-scale=1\">\n

is there a reason why you define the full fqdn to hub.docker?  
What happends if you use: docker pull amazon/aws-efs-csi-driver ?

In my case I’m defining fqdn, because Jenkins in configured in that way, if no registry is provided, the private one is used.  
So docker pull without registry works on my local machine, but not on the Jenkins’ node, because it tries to pull from private-repo/organization/docker-image.

```auto
docker pull amazon/aws-efs-csi-driver:778131e

```

works local. But the fqdn is defined in the OpenShift operator. So I can’t change this.  
Pulling with _docker pull [registry.hub.docker.com/amazon/aws-efs-csi-driver:778131e](http://registry.hub.docker.com/amazon/aws-efs-csi-driver:778131e)_ worked the last months.

Hello we have encoutred the same problem.

Quick fix for it is to change the registry url:  
`Instead of registry.hub.docker.com, put here index.docker.io`

In the CI you have to update your `DOCKER_AUTH_CONFIG` with [index.docker.io](http://index.docker.io) auth property in order to be able to auth.

Does anybody have some clues about what happened?
