Can't build custom image

Gnevich · May 5, 2023, 8:25pm

Describe the problem/error/question

First time using n8n (superiors instructed to figure out if we should use it) and got an error while tried to build custom image. In case I changed something that I shouldn’t have, I cloned another copy and then went straight to the building, but still got same problem. Am I doing something wrong ? (probably yes, but what exactly)

What is the error message (if any)?

Welcome to the community @Gnevich!

Sorry to hear that you have problems. Sadly no idea right now what is going on. I m using “Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS” and did the same as you: Checked out n8n newly from GitHub and then did run:
docker build -t n8n-custom -f docker/images/n8n-custom/Dockerfile .
For me, it did however run through without a problem:

Maybe @netroy has an idea on Monday.
