<p>I configured docker on the same host as my kubernetes-master for the private docker registry.<br>Docker pushing to the private docker registry without https was successful.<br> I also can pull the image just using docker.<br></p>

<p>When I run kubernetes for this image, I get with 'kubectl describe pods' following log :</p>

<p>I already configured my /etc/init.d/sysconfig/docker to use my insecure private registry. <br></p>

<p>This is the command to start the kubernetes deployment :</p>

<pre><code>kubectl run fgpra --image=5.179.232.65:5000/some_api_image --port=3000
</code></pre>

<p>How can I set kubernetes to pull from my private docker registry without using ssl?<br></p>

<p>This rather a docker issue than a kubernetes one. You need to add your http registry as a <code>insecure-registry</code> to your docker daemon on each kubernetes node. </p>

<p><code>docker daemon --insecure-registry=5.179.232.65:5000</code></p>

<p>In most environment there is a file like <code>/etc/default/docker</code> where you can add this parameter. </p>
