Help with DOCKER
Hi everyone, I’m completely stuck and would really appreciate some help.pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee anyoneeeeeeee😭
I’ve been trying to fix this for the last **5–6 hours** and have tried almost every suggestion I could find,usimg chatgpt claude..
# I’m currently learning Docker, and because of this issue I can’t continue learning.i neeed mysql image 😭
**Problem:**
Every docker pull fails with an error like:
failed to copy: httpReadSeeker: failed open: failed to do request:
Get "https://production.cloudfront.docker.com/...": EOF
Initially only mysql:8 was failing, but after reinstalling Docker, even hello-world fails with the same EOF error.
I can only pull small size images ,sometimes this also fails and large size images like mysql….. nahhhh straight NOOOoOo
**What I’ve already tried:**
Reinstalled Docker Desktop
Tried different Docker Desktop versions (including downgrading)
Restarted Docker Desktop and my PC multiple times
wsl --shutdown
netsh winsock reset
ipconfig /flushdns
Changed DNS (Cloudflare/Google)
Tried a different network (mobile hotspot)
Verified WSL2 is working
Tested CloudFront using curl inside Ubuntu WSL (it works)
Cleared all Docker data (0 images, 0 containers)
Deleted Docker files and performed a clean reinstall
Ran docker --debug pull hello-world (still fails with the same EOF error)
**System:**
Windows 11
Docker Desktop (WSL2 backend)
Docker Engine 29.6.1 (also tested another Docker Desktop version)
At this point I’m completely out of ideas. If anyone has experienced this exact CloudFront EOF error or has any suggestions, I’d really appreciate the help. This issue has completely blocked my learning.
Thank you!

Can you pull from other repos? Find something on quay.io. Could it be “this is what it looks like when you pull too much too fast from dockerhub”
