Here is my whole scenario.
I have a RHEL 7.1 vmware image, with the corporate proxy properly configured, accessing stuff over http or https works properly.
Installed docker-engine, and added the HTTP_PROXY setting to /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/http-proxy.conf. I can verify the proxy setting is picked up by executing:
sudo systemctl show docker --property Environment
which will print:
Environment=HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.mycompany.com:myport/ with real values of course.
Pulling and running docker images works correctly this way.
The goal is to work with the binary distribution of openshift-origin. I downloaded the binaries, and started setting up things as per the walkthrough page on github:
https://github.com/openshift/origin/blob/master/examples/sample-app/README.md
Starting openshift seems to work as I can: * login via the openshift cli * create a new project * even access the web console
But when I try to create an app in the project (also via the cli):
oc new-app centos/ruby-22-centos7~https://github.com/openshift/ruby-hello-world.git
It fails:
error: can't look up Docker image "centos/ruby-22-centos7": Internal error occurred: Get https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/: dial tcp 52.71.246.213:443: connection refused
I can access (without authentication though) this endpoint via the browser on the VM or via WGET.
Hence I believe DOCKER fails to pick up the proxy settings. After some searching I also fear if there are IPTABLES settings missing. Referring to:
But I don't know if I should fiddle with the IPTABLES settings, should not Docker figure that out itself?
Check your HTTPS_PROXY environment property.
