docker pull node 24 arm64 - no matching manifest

[gjwnc]

Environment

Platform: Raspbian 12 bookworm

• Docker Version: Docker version 28.5.1, build e180ab8
• Node.js Version: > 22
• Image Tag:

Expected Behavior

I expected, that there are docker images for node > 22 which I can pull using docker pull.

Current Behavior

I'm using docker pull node:24 but I get the error

24: Pulling from library/node
no matching manifest for linux/arm/v8 in the manifest list entries

Possible Solution

I assume someone need to create those images.
I also tried docker pull arm64v8/node:25-alpine with the same error.

Steps to Reproduce

Try docker pull node:24 on a raspberry pi 5.

Additional Information

In general I would be interested if a new node version requires a newly created issue here in github or should new versions be it minor or major be released automatically?
I'm just interested in how the node workflow is in this case if a new fixes or versions are created,
because there are other closed issues also with the same no matching manifest errors which, then, seemed to have been created kind of manually.
So, is it intentional that a new node version for raspberry/arm requires a new github issue?

Many thanks for your time and maintaining node.

linux/arm/v8 that's looking for an arm32 image, not an arm64 image. Something is mis-detecting that or has been misconfigured. It should be looking for either linux/arm64/v8 or linux/arm64. Is your OS installed with 64-bit kernel and user space? (check uname --machine and dpkg --print-architecture)

For reference, arm32 images were dropped from newer node versions: #2244.

For uname --machine I get aarch64 and for dpkg --print-architecture it is armhf.
So, if I understand this right, the raspberry is 64 bit - because of the aarch64, but the OS is 32 bit?
I try to use a software package provided by someone else via the raspberry pi image they provided. Seems to be unrelated to node and docker itself and this can be closed I assume. Many thanks for your help.

Correct, all the user space packages are 32 bit, so that is what dockerd detects (and it likely is 32 bit as well).

docker pull --platform=linux/arm64/v8 node:24 should work and run since containers only use the host kernel and not host libraries.
