kraken Cannot pull docker image using registry on port 30081

After setting up Kraken as described in documentation using k3s. Pulling a docker image with docker pull localhost:30081/library/busybox:latest fails. The output is Error response from daemon: manifest for localhost:30081/library/busybox:latest not found: manifest unknown: manifest unknown

The registry API seems to be working when I do curl -I localhost:30081/v2/ This is what I receive

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.10.3

At the end, Kraken did not work for me. If you are looking for alternatives, you can check out

@akakream, thanks for lightening up the alternatives! Kraken looks impressive, but it doesn't look like being actively maintained during the last three years or so.

I ended up writing my own registry for Docker image distribution. The registry utilizes IPFS to speed up and coordinate the distribution. You can check it out here: https://github.com/akakream/DistroMash
