Image pull hands if version for the image is not given

I’m using Docker beta for Mac and when pulling an image, if I don’t provide a version or simply request the latest :latest the installation processes seems to hang.

Hi,

Please provide more details: exact version of Docker, registry used, image pulled, step to reproduce, dockerfile or docker-compose file, etc.

Thanks,
Alexandre

@aleveille sorry for the late reply. Here are my details

Docker Version: Version 1.11.1-beta13.1 (build: 8193)
Registry Used: Don’t know what you mean here
Image Pulled: sameersbn/postgresql
Step to Reproduce:

  1. In the terminal: docker pull sameersbn/postgresql
  2. You will get the output saying that the latest version will be pulled.
  3. Then the progress of the pull is not shown.

To Fix:

  1. Close the current terminal session.
  2. Restart docker
  3. Open a new terminal and issue the command: docker pull sameersbn/postgresql:latest
  4. The progress will show as follows

Hi @tsega,

I was able to pull the image without using the latest tag. 17 seconds to download and extract everything.

time docker pull sameersbn/postgresql
Using default tag: latest
latest: Pulling from sameersbn/postgresql

Information

OS X: version 10.11.5 (build: 15F34)
Docker.app: version v1.11.1-beta13.1

If you remove the image (docker rmi imageid) and try again, do you reproduce 100% ?
