Subject: Request for Assistance with Docker Pull Rate Limit Error

Message:

Hi Moderators,

I’m currently working on the challenge “Learn Relational Databases by Building a Celestial Bodies Database,” and I’ve run into an issue that I need help with.

Whenever I attempt to pull the Docker image gitpod/workspace-postgres, I encounter the following error:

Error: 13 INTERNAL: cannot resolve image: httpReadSeeker: failed open: unexpected status code https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/gitpod/workspace-postgres/manifests/sha256:4273247fd39ecd9d0186e133fe7f8955cabf56982d8d5634df20c0f7091bebc3: 429 Too Many Requests - Server message: toomanyrequests: You have reached your pull rate limit. You may increase the limit by authenticating and upgrading: Understanding Your Docker Hub Rate Limit | Docker

It appears that I’ve hit the Docker Hub pull rate limit, and I’m unsure how to proceed from here. Despite multiple attempts, I continue to receive the same error.

Could a moderator or someone from the team please advise on how to resolve this issue? Any suggestions on bypassing the limit or alternative methods to access the required resources would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your support!

Best regards,
paker

I am surprised that you hit this limit as it seems you have to pull a lot of images to reach it!
It also seems that it will get reset after six hours based on what I read online so I would try again later

Hello there,

This had nothing to do with what you did. It was an issue on Gitpod’s side: https://www.gitpodstatus.com/incidents/zpx35lvhyp3r

Hope this clarifies
