First run always fails

[Adesin-fr]

Here is my issue :
I'm building my custom image, since I added some extensions, and wants Inertia's JS files to be built on the CI instead of the docker host :

FROM serversideup/php:8.3-frankenphp AS builder

USER root

# Node
RUN curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_22.x | bash - \
  && apt install -y nodejs

RUN apt install -y git unzip

WORKDIR /var/www/html

COPY . .
ENV CACHE_STORE=array
RUN composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader --ignore-platform-reqs

RUN npm install
RUN npm run build
RUN rm -rf node_modules

USER www-data

COPY . .

FROM serversideup/php:8.3-frankenphp

WORKDIR /var/www/html

COPY --from=builder /var/www/html /var/www/html

USER root

RUN install-php-extensions \
    bz2 \
    bcmath \
    sockets \
    exif \
    intl \
    gd \
    imagick \
 && rm -rf /usr/src /tmp/*

RUN chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html
RUN chmod -R 777 /var/www/html

USER www-data

RUN php artisan octane:install --server=frankenphp --silent --force

WORKDIR /var/www/html

Then I run this image on an ubuntu server running DokPloy, with this compose file:

services:
  php:
    image: ghcr.io/adesin-fr/nooticc:latest
    pull_policy: always
    ports:
      - 8080:8080
    # Start Octane in worker mode
    command: ["php", "artisan", "octane:start", "--server=frankenphp", "--port=8080"]
    # Set healthcheck to use our native healthcheck script for Octane
    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD", "healthcheck-octane"]
      start_period: 10s

Almost every first start, I got an error in the container logs :

In ServerStateFile.php line 49:
Unable to write to process ID file.

This seems related to laravel's octane (frankenphp server) not being able to write to the "state file path" :

However, I don't know which path is used on docker (on my dev machine, it tries to write in storage/logs/octane-server-state.json )...

Have anybody encountered this error before ?
Is this tied to something I done wrong in my dockerfile ?

EDIT : I tried adding --chown=www-data:www-data in all COPY commands, instead of chown and chmod, but still no luck :)

Thanks !

In your image (ghcr.io/adesin-fr/nooticc:latest), you might be able to do some debugging on your local computer.

You can run:

docker run --rm -it ghcr.io/adesin-fr/nooticc:latest bash

This will open a shell inside your image. From there, try to run:

ls -al /path/to/wherever/ServerStateFile.php

In usual best practice:

• All files in /var/www/html should be owned by www-data:www-data
• All directories should be 755
• All files should be 644

It seems I have found the reason !

When the container starts, the logs folder doesn't exists (it is not in my repo) -> Octane tries to write its PID file in this folder, which fails. A Log entry is generated by the Laravel's log facade, which creates the logs folder.

On the second start, the logs folder exists, so it works !

I have added a RUN command in my dockerfile, now it works on every startup !
