Hi guys, having issues with docker build:

stat cannot find Dockerfile: No such directory or folder

This is our code:

export const myImage = new docker.Image(
    myAppImageName,
    {
        imageName: pulumi.interpolate`${region}-docker.pkg.dev/${artifactRegistry.project}/${artifactRegistry.repositoryId}/${myAppImageName}`,
        build: {
            args: imageArgs,
            platform: "linux/amd64",
            context: "../",
            dockerfile: "../Dockerfile.gcp_web",
        },
    },
    { dependsOn: [artifactRegistry, elastic.instance] }
);

Any ideas?

docker build .. -f ../Dockerfile.gcp_web

<---- this is working just fine in the same directory

What’s the directory structure? Can you tell us how those things are located in reference to each other: • Pulumi.yaml • source file (the one containing the code snippet mentioned above) • Dockerfile How do you run pulumi CLI (from what directory) on the top of that?

This is my structure: project/ -ops(Folder) -> here is the Pulumi.yaml --resources(Folder) -> here is the actual pulumi docker code --index.ts --Pulumi.yaml DockerFile -> the docker file we need tu build DockerFile is inside project root folder. We run

pulumi up

command inside

ops

folder. So that’s why we are using

../

as context and

../DockerFile

as it’s actually the relative path (one up from ops, where we run the command) we already tried with one more directory but it didn’t work. (Expecting to use resources as the current path from pulumi) We also logged the

__dirname

and

pwd

and everything points to

ops

folder, where we are standing.

can you try to move the Dockerfile to

ops

folder, change the code accordingly and run

pulumi up

again to see if the error persists?

We found the issue, and it’s not related to the dockerfile (as the error says) It’s related to some dependency (elastic search) not being able to be resolved……. We are going to investigate further and upload an issue to pulumi github

I feel like I did nothing to help you but I’m glad to hear you managed to find the root cause 🙂
