TL;DR

Check your access permissions to the ghcr.io/openclaw/openclaw:latest Docker image registry.

Guidance

  • Verify that you have the necessary permissions to access the ghcr.io registry, as the error message suggests a denied access response from the registry.
  • Ensure you are logged in to the correct Docker account or organization that has access to the openclaw/openclaw image.
  • Check the image name and tag (latest) for any typos or incorrect versions.
  • If using Docker Compose, verify that the docker-compose.yml file is correctly configured to pull the image.

Example

No code snippet is provided as it's not necessary for this issue.

Notes

The issue seems to be related to access permissions, but without more information about the Docker setup and authentication, it's difficult to provide a more specific solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Check your access permissions and Docker configuration to resolve the issue, as there is no clear indication of a version upgrade being necessary.
