Dockerfile will not build

[pvalena]

Because content is no .git repository.

• Possibly missing VOLUME in Dockerfile
• Make build non-failing in case content is not a git repository.

I ran into this same issue. The content folder is a git submodule. It should be downloaded because --recursive is called in the Dockerfile.

I resolved it by cloning the content repo into the website -> content folder.

Here is more information on git submodules. https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Submodules

I ran into this same issue. The content folder is a git submodule. It should be downloaded because --recursive is called in the Dockerfile.

Yes, that should work, as described in DEVELOPMENT.md f.e.. I didn't get around to fix the Dockerfile yet, feel free to submit PRs.

Getting this error every time i try to run the project after clone content.

I already made changes in content and it's working for add OCaml language in /tech and I'm trying add the static files to the website.

I already:

• Try run on docker
• run ./setup.sh and jekyll
• run with jekyll serve --force_polling -H 0.0.0.0 -l -I -w
• build
• clone as separate projects
• clone using --recursive
• clone using --recurse-submodules
• clone and move/copy content folder
• clone and them use git submodule update --init --recursive

all them result in this error:

seems as this file is on the path where it says that it can't find it.

Don't know if I'm doing something wrong, any help here?

Hello, yes I had the same issue. Not sure what causes it.

Try applying this commit to content: developer-portal/content@dc8a4a3

I've had to revert it subsequently, as it did break the deployment (I think in quay.io)... Now I've pushed it once more and hopefully it'll work for you. Let's try solving the issue in quay.io instead.

Note that there's a container ready to use here: https://quay.io/repository/developer-portal/devel
(You don't need to build the container yourself to be able to check the changes on the site.)

Let me check if the container builds (either with the commit, or without) and get back to you.

EDIT: it works with the change I've now pushed.

---

As a sidenote, I have recently refreshed the DEVELOPMENT.md, as well as the Dockerfile and it is fixed (I forgot to close this issue).

Generally, there are several ways to build the site: in a container, in a VM, or on your host system- you can choose just one of those (e.g. there's no need to install jekyll, if you want to use or build container).

[Camilotk]

Thanks it just worked for me!
The bug still persists when update with the revert commit right? Any help needed finding it?

[pvalena]

Yes, but this breaks container builds for me, locally. The simplest solution would be to switch to another %{links} notation which does not suffer these reference issues.

Additionaly, a new has occured in Quay.io:

Gem::Ext::BuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

In Gemfile:

https://quay.io/repository/developer-portal/devel/build/01418da5-442f-478a-9dac-5952ad9fc404
I think this can be mitigate with ffi gem update in Fedora (which I'm working on).
