Docker build error OCI runtime create failed "exec: \"/bin/bash\": stat /bin/bash

Question

Getting following error while run docker build...

OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:349: starting container process caused "exec: \"/bin/bash\": stat /bin/bash: no such file or directory": unknown

Answer 1

Your container doesn't have bash installed but probably it has sh so run the container with (replace /bin/bash with /bin/sh):

docker exec -it username/imagename /bin/sh

Answer 2

This is because the container i'm trying to access doesn't have the /bin/bash executable.

Replace RUN ["/bin/bash"... by RUN ["/bin/sh"...
