Missing tags in registry after maintenance

Community Containers
1

Hi

After the maintenance here: Greenbone Container Registry: Scheduled Maintenance and Service Change on Monday April 13th, 2026 - #2

I cannot browse: https://registry.community.greenbone.net/v2/community/gsa/tags/list

Also pulling my stable version tags fails. I suppose tags were not migrated or rebuilt?

After the registry maintenance the versioned container image tags are not available anymore.

Geez louize. Big sad, that is really unfortunate. Will make a determenistic setup very hard :slight_smile:

Like linus said “don’t break the userspace”. Atleast you could have had the old tags present, not wipe them from our rug and going forward only the specified tags are available, but you had to wipe the rug aswell.

The registry had a serious issue and was re-setup up from the ground. Therefore existing images were not re-installed. Due to resource limitations the versioned images will not be available anymore.

A small side note, you get all this for free, without any warranty, support or assurance. We never promised to provide all container images in all versions forever. If you need that, you either need to ensure that by yourself or arrange a payed contract with Greenbone. Personally I try my best to not break anything, but that’s not always possible.

yeah this isn’t really a docker issue, the container registry got rebuilt so those versioned tags are just gone.
If you are pinning images like openvas-scanner:v23.30.2-amd64, those images are no longer available and docker will fail.
short fix for the future:
mirror images of your own registry. or save them (docker save)
or use latest tags (but you lose deterministic builds)
public registry = no guarantee of old tags… learned that one the hard way too.

Encountered this same issue. Thanks for linking to the announcement. One thing that isn’t clear to me - will images still be retained long term and accessible by direct sha? or will images “roll off” if they are not referenced by one of the maintained tags?
