Good afternoon,
Goal: Resolve Docker credential errors.
OS Windows 11 Home Version 23H2 Docker Desktop Version 4.0.0 Docker Engine Version 27.4.0 Docker commands are being executed in VSCode terminal so I believe that means they are being ran through WSL2. WSL2 OS according to cat /etc/os-release, Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS
Expected results: run docker compose up --build -d and have my docker-compose.yaml file run as expected. I have done this many times before with no problems.
Actual results: when “db pulling…” occurs in terminal, I get the following error:
**error getting credentials - err: exit status 1, out: **
What I have tried:
- Restarting Docker via system tray.
- Signing in and out of Docker via system tray, this was successful but did not resolve problem.
- Signing in an out of docker via
docker login -u <username>received error: Error saving credentials: error storing credentials - err: exit status 1, out: - Signing in and out of docker via
docker login, received error failed to store tokens: error storing credentials - err: exit status 1, out: error storing credentials - err: exit status 1, out: - Deleting credsStore value from config.json in .docker folder.
- Deleting entire credsStore line from config.json in .docker folder.
- Deleting config.json from .docker folder.
- Remove docker-credential-helpers via
rm -rf ~/.password-store/docker-credential-helpers - Generate GPG Key Pair
- Initialize pass utility.
- Attempted to stop docker service via service docker stop, received error Failed to stop docker.service: Interactive authentication required. See system logs and ‘systemctl status docker.service’ for details.
- Attempted to run systemctl status docker.service and received error Unit docker.service could not be found.
- Uninstalling docker and reinstalling Docker.
