Docker pull throws missing signature key error

We are using docker with RHEL 7. When pulling the newest docker image 8319 we get the error “missing signature key”. I found a article in the Redhat support forum that this is related to the manifest type. I checked the types with "sudo podman image inspect
docker.io/jitsi/web:stable-8319 " which shows that the new image has the manifest type “vnd.oci.image.manifest.v1”. Image 6865 has type “vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.v2”. Would it be possible to continue to offer the image in the previous format / manifest type?

Hum, interesting.

I did change the machine which makes the releases, but it still uses Docker Desktop. Do you know how to configure that?

I found this article: Docker pull throws "missing signature key" error - Red Hat Customer Portal
It says the errer occurs when the image was built by buildah.


I don’t use buildah, I use Docker Desktop which uses buildx.

An unwanted export as oci format with buildx can also be the cause (see docker buildx build). I would be very happy if you could look at it again. With the new format I can unfortunately no longer use jitsi. I think that others also will be affected by this problem in the near future.

I don’t know what to look into, sorry. I literally used the same release script as last time. My guess is Docker has changed the default, but I don’t know what to change.
