# Scanning Podman built container images

> Troubleshoot errors while scanning container images built using Podman 

To successfully run endorctl scans on a container image built using Podman, use the following instructions:

1. Build the image using the following command. This command builds a container image and tags it with the label `test:latest`.

   ```bash theme={null}
      podman build -t test:latest
   ```

2. After building the image, confirm the target registry by running the following command. Podman automatically adds `localhost` as the target registry for this image.

   ```bash theme={null}
      podman image ls
   ```

3. Before scanning the image with endorctl, sign in to the registry that hosts the image.

4. Check if there is a registry running at `localhost`.

5. If a registry is not running at `localhost`, then you must re-tag the image to a reachable registry, using the following command. Replace `<reachable-registry>` with the actual URL of an accessible registry.

   ```bash theme={null}
      podman tag test:latest <reachable-registry>/test:latest
   ```

6. Sign in to the reachable registry using any container runtime. Now you can run the `endorctl` scan. Targeting a reachable registry lets you locate the image manifest and download all required layer blobs for vulnerability analysis.
