google.appengine.tools.docker.containers.ImageError: Image with tag google/docker-registry was not found

I tried to omit the --server preview.appengine.google.com parameter but it results in the same error

You need to pull the google/docker-registry image to resolve this error:

docker pull google/docker-registry

Note: if you receive the following error when trying to redeploy:

docker.docker.errors.APIError: 500 Server Error: Internal Server Error ("Invalid registry endpoint https://192.168.59.103:49153/v1/: Get https://192.168.59.103:49153/v1/_ping: EOF. If this private registry supports only HTTP or HTTPS with an unknown CA certificate, please add `--insecure-registry 192.168.59.103:49153` to the daemon's arguments. In the case of HTTPS, if you have access to the registry's CA certificate, no need for the flag; simply place the CA certificate at /etc/docker/certs.d/192.168.59.103:49153/ca.crt")

Ensure that your docker daemon has been setup with the 'insecure registry' option (you will need to re-pull the google/docker-registry after the following steps) . You can do this with the following, (which was an answer on https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/8887):

$ boot2docker delete #removes old image
$ rm -f ~/.ssh/id_boot2docker* # remove old keys
$ boot2docker init #generates new keys, cert
$ boot2docker up
$ boot2docker ssh
$ # add EXTRA_ARGS="--insecure-registry <YOUR INSECURE HOST>" 
$ # to /var/lib/boot2docker/profile
$ sudo /etc/init.d/docker restart
