Layer already exists when trying to push an image

0 votes

I have an image that i'm trying to push but gives me a  very weird error.

sudo docker push docker.io/kalginshah/my-apache2
The push refers to a repository [docker.io/kalginshah/my-apache2]

What's the issue?

I think the first time you tried pushing it said "layer mounted" and I'm guessing you tried to push again coz thats when you get this error.

Follow these steps:

1. remove/delete that image

docker rmi --force 'image id'

2. Tag the image

docker tag my-apache2:kalginshah/my-apache2

3. Push is again

docker push kalginshah/my-apache2

Check the image tags, you might have another image with the same tag.

Inspect your images and find two or more with the same tag:

docker images 

Delete them:

docker rmi --force 'image id'

Retag them with the different tag name

I had a similar error. I hadn't tagged my image. I just had to tag it and then push. Worked like a charm
