I'm new to docker so I might be doing this wrong, but I'm trying to install Tomcat6 through a Dockerfile
which like this:
FROM rhel7:latest
RUN cd /tmp
RUN "wget", "http://www.us.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-6/v6.0.44/bin/apache-tomcat-6.0.44.tar.gz"
RUN tar xzf apache-tomcat-6.0.44.tar.gz
RUN mv apache-tomcat-6.0.44 /usr/local/tomcat6
RUN cd /usr/local/tomcat6
Run ./bin/start.sh
Its failing on the 3rd line with the:
RUN "wget", "http://www.us.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-6/v6.0.44/bin/apache-tomcat-6.0.44.tar.gz"
When I run the docker build I get this:
I'm using:
- Oracle Virtual Box V4.3.28 r100309
- Docker on RHEL7
Thanks in advance for any help.
Solution to the image with error is to add before the wget CMD
RUN yum -y install wget
If you write it like this, it is the same result, just different execution:
RUN wget http://www.us.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-6/v6.0.44/bin/apache-tomcat-6.0.44.tar.gz
Don't use the quotes and comma in RUN
command.
Exit code 127 from shell commands means "command not found". So, in your case it seems the "wget" within quotes is not being found when Docker runs it.
In some cases, the command to install wget (or whatever command-line tool is missing) must first be run in the Dockerfile because some base Docker images will not have wget. You would add a line before the failing command that looks something like this:
RUN yum install -y wget
Do not forget you can add all lib and package you need on the same line
RUN cd /tmp \
&& apt-get update \
&& apt-get install -y curl apt-utils wget unzip\
&& rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
