I'm going to setup a local registry by following https://docs.docker.com/registry/deploying/.
docker run -d -p 5000:5000 --restart=always --name reg ubuntu:16.04
When I try to run the following command:
$ docker push localhost:5000/my-ubuntu
I get Error:
Get http://localhost:5000/v2/: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:5000: connect:connection refused
Any idea?
Connection refused usually means that the service you are trying to connect to isn't actually up and running like it should. There could be other reasons as outlined in this question, but essentially, for your case, it simply means that the registry is not up yet.
Wait for the registry container to be created properly before you do anything else - docker run -d -p 5000:5000 --restart=always --name registry registry:2 that creates a local registry from the official docker image.
Make sure that the registry container is up by running docker ps | grep registry, and then proceed further.
If you are using Minikube, and want to pull down an image from 127.0.0.1:5000,
then you meet the errors below:
Failed to pull image "127.0.0.1:5000/nginx_operator:latest": rpc error: code = Unknown desc = Error response from daemon: Get http://127.0.0.1:5000/v2/: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:5000: connect: connection refused

The registry must be setup inside the Minikube side instead of your host side.
i.e.
Step1: check your Minikube container
$ docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID IMAGE ... STATUS PORTS NAMES

# your Minikube is under running
# host:49154 <--> minikube:5000
# where:
# - port 49154 was allocated randomly by the docker service
# - port 22: for ssh
# - port 2376: for docker service
# - port 5000: for registry (image repository)
# - port 8443: for Kubernetes
Step2: login to your Minikube
$ minikube ssh
docker@minikube:~$ curl 127.0.0.1:5000
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 5000: Connection refused
# setup
# =====
# You did not setup the registry.
# Let's try to setup it.
docker@minikube:~$ docker run --restart=always -d -p 5000:5000 --name registry registry:2
# test
# ====
# test the registry using the following commands
docker@minikube:~$ curl 127.0.0.1:5000
docker@minikube:~$ curl 127.0.0.1:5000/v2
<a href="/v2/">Moved Permanently</a>.
docker@minikube:~$ curl 127.0.0.1:5000/v2/_catalog
{"repositories":[]}
# it's successful
docker@minikube:~$ exit
logout
Step3: build your image, and push it into the registry of your Minikube
# Let's take nginx as an example. (You can build your own image)
$ docker pull nginx
# modify the repository (the source and the name)
$ docker tag nginx 127.0.0.1:49154/nginx_operator
# check the new repository (source and the name)
$ docker images | grep nginx
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
127.0.0.1:49154/nginx_operator latest ae2feff98a0c 3 weeks ago 133MB
# push the image into the registry of your Minikube
$ docker push 127.0.0.1:49154/nginx_operator
Step4: login to your Minikube again
$ minikube ssh
# check the registry
$ curl 127.0.0.1:5000/v2/_catalog
{"repositories":["nginx_operator"]}
# it's successful
# get the image info
$ curl 127.0.0.1:5000/v2/nginx_operator/manifests/latest
docker@minikube:~$ exit
logout
if you would like to use the port 5000 on the host side instead of using 49154 (which was allocated randomly by the docker service)
i.e. host:5000 <--> minikube:5000
you need to recreate a minikube instance with the flag --ports
# delete the old minikube instance
$ minkube delete
# create a new one (with the docker driver)
$ minikube start --ports=5000:5000 --driver=docker
# or
$ minikube start --ports=127.0.0.1:5000:5000 --driver=docker
$ docker ps -a
