Hello, I am on **SuSE Manager 5.0.2 Server** on a vm no. **srv181**. Also installed a current **gitlab 17.8 c** e on another vm **srv184**. And installed **sles 15 sp6 as build host** for SuSE Manager on vm **srv183**. On vm no. 3 i have successfully configured docker, to build via Dockerfile a working container. That image i have tagged and pushed to the gitlab docker registry: ```auto docker tag my-apache2 srv184.linux.lab:5050/suma/suma_repository/my-apache2 docker push srv184.linux.lab:5050/suma/suma_repository/my-apache2 srv183:~/http_dockerfile # docker images REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE my-apache2 latest 59290484845d 41 minutes ago 148MB srv184.linux.lab:5050/suma/suma_repository/my-apache2 latest 59290484845d 41 minutes ago 148MB httpd 2.4 4d98e80840bb 2 weeks ago 148MB ``` ![gitlab_docker_image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/suse/original/2X/e/eebda31fdb845f58cf7c4f03fd6e4b03c0a0478b.png) So far the environment underneath. Now configured the SuSE Manager Image Section: ![suma_image_store](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/suse/original/2X/6/62ebe53e1795cf39c633d10500ce087d83f89b2d.png) ![suma_image_profile](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/suse/original/2X/a/ac8d6d31b0594aa09e2d08f3f799c9a2d78e7314.png) And here the “Dockerfile”: ```auto FROM httpd:2.4 ``` ```auto ---------- ID: mgr_registries_login Function: mgrcompat.run Name: docker.login Result: true Comment: Module function docker.login executed Started: 14:44:03.129290 Duration: 222.647 SLS: images.docker Changed: ret: retcode: 0.0 Errors: [ ] Results: srv184.linux.lab:5050/suma/suma_repository: true ---------- ID: mgr_buildimage Function: mgrcompat.run Name: docker.build Result: false Comment: Module function docker.build threw an exception.

Please give me support in solving it. Thank you. Best regards Stefan ---

Wow, no one, who has ever used that feature (container building) of suma and can give me instructions for using it? Even no SuSE employer here in it to support? 🙄 ---

@StefanS1 Hi, then it’s probably better for you to create a support request on your issue. ---

@malcolmlewis I am in a test period of suma, in order get a clue, what is functioning and what not. And the problem is so far, that test users are not able to get support via tickets… ---

@StefanS1 Well I’m not a Suma or docker user, but looking at this link you use the ID tag [https://docs.docker.com/reference/cli/docker/image/tag/](https://docs.docker.com/reference/cli/docker/image/tag/) not the URL? ---

@malcolmlewis When building, tagging and pushing via command line of the suma build host, all is fine. I do not have a clue, in which fields of the image store or the build config the misconfiguration lies in. I assume a lacking documentation of that feature, for example no screenshots of working configs are shown. ---

→ informing you, that the SuSE support worked out the problem and developed a TEST fix, that is working.
