Can't create a docker image for COPY failed: stat /var/lib/docker/tmp/docker-builder error

Question

I want to create a docker image. This is my work directory: Dockerfile.in test.json test.py

And this is my Dockerfile:

COPY ./test.json /home/tes         


        

Answer 1

I had the same issue with a .tgz file .

It was just about the location of the file. Ensure the file is in the same directory of the Dockerfile.

Also ensure the .dockerignore file directory doesn't exclude the file regex pattern.
