How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Anything else we need to know:

Environment:

Root Cause: Unlike GCP, AWS does not create folders/repositories automatically in a registry and the error is caused by lack of repositories. The error can be confirmed from CloudTrail "The repository with name '<path to image>' does not exist in the registry with id '<account-id>'"
The issue is known but has still not been implemented: aws/containers-roadmap#853

Intermediate Solution: Creating the repositories manually via the aws ecr create-repository --repository-name <path to docker image> solves the issue, but has to be repeated for all repositories hosting images. ie. Consider a component archive with 1 local resource, 2 repositories have to be created, 1 for the image of the local resource and 1 for the component-descriptor.

Team Decision:

• Close the current bug ticket as supporting AWS is not currently a priority
• For testing on AWS, repositories can be created manually
• Create ticket to support AWS in the future
