Hi all! I'm getting the following error when running

./pants package

on a

docker_image

target:

#3 [internal] load metadata for <http://docker.io/library/python:3.9.10|docker.io/library/python:3.9.10>
#3 sha256:46aa02c10fee7f9ebc6cc466be0c44172ff37ff4dd662dc045c92c93ba51e3fe
#3 ERROR: rpc error: code = Unknown desc = error getting credentials - err: exit status 1, out: `One or more parameters passed to a function were not valid.`

has anyone ran into this issue?

nothing I recognize, but seems to be related to a docker auth plugin. Does it work when you run docker outside of pants? If so, it’s likely some missing env var/PATH needed for the pants docker configuration that needs to be set in order for the auth plugin to work.

thank you!!

Then maybe the notion of the current user/home dir is not specified when running Docker from pants..

if neither

XDG_CONFIG_HOME

nor

HOME

is not set in the execution sandbox, docker would not know where to find config file. https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/2400bc66ef6955760a331a2bff767d4fec244844/pkg/homedir/homedir_linux.go#L84-L93

If you're ever curious to learn more about sandboxing in Pants, this is a good intro talk about that
