Jersey UniformInterfaceException when doing a POST with docker-client

Question

When trying to post a RESTful Service via docker-client to my private docker registry i get that error. The confusing thing about that is that the input stream changes itself as you can see here. Its made somewhere in the background of jersey but i cannot find the cause for it. I guess the problem occurs somewhere inside the jersey logic

Method

public static Service initService(String imageId) {

        final com.spotify.docker.client.DockerClient docker = new DefaultDockerClient(
                "http://10.###.###.143:2375");
        String s = null;

        try {

            s = ("10.###.###.143:5000/user/ipatest&tag=latest");

            docker.pull(s);

            System.out.println(docker.toString());

        } catch (DockerException | InterruptedException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

Exception

com.spotify.docker.client.DockerRequestException: Request error: POST http://10.###.###.143:2375/v1.12/images/create?fromImage=10.###.###.143%3A5000%2Fuser%2Fipatest%26tag%3Dlatest: 500

It must have something to do with queryParams(String params) which belongs to WebResource (jersey)

Answer 1

The image name you're passing to pull isn't valid. The format for an image name is name:tag . Do this instead:

docker.pull("10.###.###.143:5000/user/ipatest:latest");

Alternatively, you can ommit the :latest , since it is implied when no other tag is specified.
