It can not donwload the Docker images and push them to the local registry. This is caused by the VM not beeing able to access the external network of the host machine.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="color:black;mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
