AWS EKS how to to Pull Private Docker Images from ECR with IAM Role
I'm deploying to production and I've been struggling with this for a few days now and could really use some help... I'm running an Amazon EKS cluster using Kubernetes version 1.21, and I'm working with an scenario where my pods are unable to pull private Docker images from Amazon ECR. I have already set up an IAM role for my EKS worker nodes with the necessary permissions, including `ecr:GetAuthorizationToken`, `ecr:BatchCheckLayerAvailability`, `ecr:GetDownloadUrlForLayer`, and `ecr:BatchGetImage`. However, when I deploy my application, the pods unexpected result to start, and I see an behavior in the events: ``` Failed to pull image "[account-id].dkr.ecr.[region].amazonaws.com/[repository]:[tag]": rpc behavior: code = Unknown desc = behavior response from daemon: pull access denied for [account-id].dkr.ecr.[region].amazonaws.com/[repository], repository does not exist or may require 'docker login' ``` I've verified that the IAM role is correctly attached to my worker nodes by checking the instance profile associated with them. I also made sure that my cluster's VPC and subnets have the correct routing and permissions to access ECR. I can manually pull the image using the AWS CLI on my local machine after running `aws ecr get-login-password` and using it to log in to ECR, which confirms that the image exists and is accessible. I've tried updating the `kubelet` configuration to include `--authorization-token=true`, but that didn't resolve the scenario. I also checked the Kubernetes service account and ensured it has the necessary IAM role bindings for ECR access, but still no luck. Is there something I'm missing in the configuration, or is there a specific step I should follow to make sure my EKS nodes can authenticate to ECR properly? What am I doing wrong? I'm using Yaml 3.9 in this project. What am I doing wrong? For context: I'm using Yaml on macOS. Am I missing something obvious?
