When I was trying to push my image to Docker Hub, there was this request access deny error.

2 main reasons why - 1) I did not login to Docker Hub 2) My docker hub’s id and the tagged image’s name does not match

For me it was the latter. But let’s see the solution for both.

Solution 1

$ docker login           
Login with your Docker ID to push and pull images from Docker Hub. If you dont have a Docker ID, head over to https://hub.docker.com to create one.
Username: bcp0109
Password: 
Login Succeeded

But if you are using Docker Hub cuz ur OS is Windows, just logging in to the Docker Hub UI is sufficient.

Solution 2

Match the tag with the ID.

$ docker tag codingmates brian6484/codingmates
$ docker push brian6484/codingmates     

It works!
