Run MobileFirst server on IBM Containers

I followed Link to Run IBM MobileFirst Platform Foundation on IBM Containers. I downloaded the IBM MobileFirst Platform Foundation V7.1 .zip file also. However, after following all steps that are given in previous link, I cannot access the MobileFirst console. The public IP address that was given to me is not opening link - not available.

Below is a snippet of what I did on the console. Can someone help me? What is the issue? Am I looking in the wrong direction?

1) initenv.sh – Log in to Bluemix 

Suhas-iMac:~ suhas$ cf ic login
You are using version 0.8.876 of the IBM Containers plug-in.
Version 0.8.878 of the plug-in is available for you to install.
Run the "cf ic update" command to update your plug-in to the current version.
You can review the documentation to see the changes that are included in the new version.
https://www.ng.bluemix.net/docs/containers/container_cli_reference_cfic_versions.html

Storing client certificates in /Users/suhas/.ice/certs/containers-api.ng.bluemix.net/f53ac5e5-93d2-41a0-b567-b621fb2bc036...

OK
The client certificates were retrieved.

Checking local Docker configuration...
OK

Authenticating with the IBM Containers registry host registry.ng.bluemix.net...
OK
You are authenticated with the IBM Containers registry.
Your organization's private Bluemix repository: registry.ng.bluemix.net/bluemix_test

You can choose from two ways to use the Docker CLI with IBM Containers:


Option 1: This option allows you to use 'cf ic' for managing containers on IBM Containers while still using the Docker CLI directly to manage your local Docker host.
Use this Cloud Foundry IBM Containers plug-in without affecting the local Docker environment:


Example Usage:
cf ic ps
cf ic images

Option 2: Use the Docker CLI directly. In this shell, override the local Docker environment by setting these variables to connect to IBM Containers. Copy and paste the following commands:
Note: Only some Docker commands are supported with this option. Run cf ic help to see which commands are supported. 
export DOCKER_HOST=tcp://containers-api.ng.bluemix.net:8443
export DOCKER_CERT_PATH=/Users/suhas/.ice/certs/containers-api.ng.bluemix.net/f53ac5e5-93d2-41a0-b567-b621fb2bc036
export DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY=1

Example Usage:
docker ps
docker images

2) prepareserverdbs.sh - Prepare the MobileFirst Server database

Suhas-iMac:scripts suhas$ ./prepareserverdbs.sh
Specify the name of your Bluemix database service. (mandatory) : CloudantDB         
Specify the name of your Bluemix application (mandatory) : DeveloperTest
Specify your runtime name or project name (If not specified, the script will perform the configuration of administration database) (optional) :     
Specify the name of the database schema (defaults to WLADMIN for administration database or the runtime name for runtime databases) (optional) : 
Arguments : 
----------- 

DB_SRV_NAME :  CloudantDB
APP_NAME :  DeveloperTest
RUNTIME_NAME : 
SCHEMA_NAME :  WLADMIN

JAVA_HOME: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_73.jdk/Contents/Home

Getting database configuration
Configuration saved in file '../usr/config/wladmin.xml'

3) prepareserver.sh - Prepare a Mobilefirst Platform Foundation Server image 

Suhas-iMac:scripts suhas$ ./prepareserver.sh
Specify the name for the MobileFirst Server image. Should be of form registryUrl/repositoryNamespace/imagename (mandatory) : registry.ng.bluemix.net/ibm-mobilefirst-starter
Specify the comma-separated paths of the MobileFirst projects to be added to this image. If nothing is specified, only the projects copied to the usr/projects directory are added. (optional) : /Users/suhas/Documents/Suhas/Projects/Suhas_workspace/MobileIonic
Arguments : 
----------- 

SERVER_IMAGE_NAME :  registry.ng.bluemix.net/ibm-mobilefirst-starter
PROJECT_LOC :  /Users/suhas/Documents/Suhas/Projects/Suhas_workspace/MobileIonic

First thing you need to do is to define a SERVER_IMAGE_TAG in the right form as explained in Step 3: Using the configuration files.

The SERVER_IMAGE_TAG should be of the form: registry-url/namespace/your-tag.

You tried to build an image with a public image tag that already exist in the Bluemix repository: ibm-mobilefirst-starter, and that is the reason you got the error: "unauthorized: authentication required" message when the prepareserver.sh script tried to push this image to the repository.

Then, you used the startserver.sh script to run a container with the ibm-mobilefirst-starter public image instead of your own image. You cannot use the already published ibm-mobilefirst-starter image tag. You must use your own.
