nerdctl login used against a basic auth server will error in confusing ways after hammering the server
apostasie opened this issue · comments
Description
Passing wrong credentials against a basic auth registry will result in nerdctl trying repeatedly (ten times).
Then spit out:
too many 401 (probably)
Followed by a failed to call rh.Client.Do: Get \"https://10.4.0.1:5000/v2/\": tls: failed to verify certificate: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority" i=1 which does not make sense here.
Steps to reproduce the issue
- Start a registry with basic auth
- Login using nerdctl
Describe the results you received and expected
Received:
- confusing error message
- repeated attempts with the same wrong credentials instead of bailing out
Should have received:
- more clear error message
- try once and stop
