Error: Failed to solve with frontend dockerfile.v0: failed to create LLB definition: no match for platform in manifest when building docker image

Question

I get the error:

failed to solve with frontend dockerfile.v0: failed to create LLB definition: no match for platform in manifest

when building the following Dockerfile:

FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/framework/aspnet:4.8
COPY . /inetpub/wwwroot

Answer 1

The cause was simple, i had my docker desktop running on linux containers and the image is build from a windows image.

Simply switching to windows containers solved the problem.

The message is clueless, so i hope this save some time to others.
