Someone would have an insight to help me understand this error?

This looks like it could be due to connection issues with our remote Docker builder.

Can you try running the fly doctor command and pasting what you see ?

Thank you Rahmatjunaid,
Here is the output:

s@W530:~/Documents/Deploy/nemesis-master$ fly doctor
Testing authentication token... PASSED
Testing flyctl agent... PASSED
Testing local Docker instance... Nope
Pinging WireGuard gateway (give us a sec)... PASSED

I tested my local docker installation with the hello-world test:

s@W530:~/Documents/Deploy/nemesis-master$ sudo docker run hello-world
[sudo] password for s: 
Unable to find image 'hello-world:latest' locally

Hello from Docker!
This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.

To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:
 1. The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.
 2. The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.
    (amd64)
 3. The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the
    executable that produces the output you are currently reading.
 4. The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it
    to your terminal.

Hum…when I try to build the image with Docker locally with the Dockerfile generated by fly launch, I get this output:

Sending build context to Docker daemon  7.768MB
Step 1/33 : ARG BUILDER_IMAGE="hexpm/elixir:1.13.4-erlang-25.0.3-debian-bullseye-20210902-slim"

manifest for hexpm/elixir:1.13.4-erlang-25.0.3-debian-bullseye-20210902-slim not found: manifest unknown: manifest unknown

Is it possible to see the full dockerfile in a gist or repo?

Thank you Heyjordn.
I haven’t touched the file generated by the fly launch command:

Looks like it might be the remote builder fly-builder-dark-snowflake-3297 like @rahmatjunaid had said, not sure if @michael or @jsierles could check the runner’s region to dig deeper

Might be similar to this one

It looks like this image disappeared :frowning:

Can you try updating your Dockerfile with:

hexpm/elixir:1.12.3-erlang-23.2.7.5-debian-buster-20210902-slim

Also which version of Phoenix are you using? This built-in command may give you a good Dockerfile

mix phx.gen.release --docker

Thanks Jsierles,

I am on Phoenix 1.6.6; I modified the Dockerfile with
hexpm/elixir:1.12.3-erlang-23.2.7.5-debian-buster-20210902-slim

It is now working! Great! but my build fails because I have no runtime.exs in /config. LOL!

The equivalent image for Erlang 25.0.2 (instead of 25.0.3) seems to be available, so I’ve used that.

elixir:1.13.4-erlang-25.0.2-debian-bullseye-20210902-slim

Unlike @Astund’s generated Dockerfile, mine uses ARG build-time variables:

ARG ELIXIR_VERSION=1.13.4
ARG OTP_VERSION=25.0.2
ARG DEBIAN_VERSION=bullseye-20210902-slim

ARG BUILDER_IMAGE="hexpm/elixir:${ELIXIR_VERSION}-erlang-${OTP_VERSION}-debian-${DEBIAN_VERSION}"

@Astund, did you sort your missing runtime.exs issue?

@DavidO Yep, the runtime.exs was just a config issue on my side! Everything runs nicely now. Thanks to all of you. :slight_smile:
