Quay.io repo login

Hi I in fact do have a quay.io login but when I run podman for example and try to pull from the registry invariably I get “unauthorised access” despite the fact that I am logged in my browser. In the words of Vinnie (young John Travolta) from “Welcome Back Kotter” (for those of you old enuf) “I’m sooooo confused!”

Podman can’t see your login info in the browser. You need to set your credentials using podman login command. Run it from terminal and it will ask for username and password. See man podman-login for mor information.

Indeed; logging in using the browser doesn’t authorize all applications on the computer to access the site you logged into. Nearly every application has its own methods for authentication.
