ECS to Authenticate with Docker Hub

Question

I'm having issues authenticating with a private repo in docker hub from my AWS EC2 instance.

AWS provides documentation on how to set this up. http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/private-auth.html

I've followed the documentation and am still getting the following error:

Error response from daemon: repository user/reponame not found: does not exist or no pull access

I've created an ecs.config in the /etc/ecs directory

my ecs.config (Note: I've removed my credentials)

ECS_ENGINE_AUTH_TYPE=docker ECS_ENGINE_AUTH_DATA={"https://index.docker.io/v1/":{"username":"username","password":"password","email":"[email protected]"}}

I then stopped and restarted ecs service.

I still get

Error response from daemon: repository user/reponame not found: does not exist or no pull access

Note: I am able to log in manually using docker login from my linux ec2 instance, then pull from my private repo

Private docker hub repositories were enabled from v1.19.0 of the container agents so you can update the container agent used by the cluster or use the optimised AMI.
