I had the same issue. In my case it was a private registry. So I had to create a secret as shown here
and then we have to add the image pull secret to the deployment.yaml file as shown below.
pods/private-reg-pod.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: private-reg
spec:
containers:
- name: private-reg-container
image: <your-private-image>
imagePullSecrets:
- name: regcred
