ADD failed: file not found in build context or excluded by .dockerignore: stat file does not exist

Ask a Question!

I'm trying to create an image using Portainer.IO Unraid CA.

Using the Web UI.

1. I uploaded the file "test.txt".

2. Build Command:

FROM alpine:latest
ADD test.txt /etc

Build Log:

Step 1/2 : FROM alpine:latest
 ---> 91ef0af61f39
Step 2/2 : ADD test.txt /etc
ADD failed: file not found in build context or excluded by .dockerignore: stat test.txt: file does not exist

Any ideas?

Hello @Snake883 How are you uploading this file? The build can not find the file so please check the path and make sure you are using the pull path so it knows where to find that test.txt file.

Hi Nick,

I'm using the Portainer-CE docker container via Unraid Community Apps.
I am building the image via Web Editor, and upload the file via Web Editor.

Where can I verify the "pull path"?

Portainer-CE log:
2024/11/02 05:19PM INF github.com/portainer/portainer/api/http/proxy/factory/docker/build.go:92 > upload the file to build image | filename=blob size=35
Thank you.
