Docker: The Command Returned A Non-zero Code: 137

My docker file is as follows: #Use python 3.6 image FROM python:3.6 ENV PYTHONUNBUFFERED 1 #install required packages RUN apt-get update RUN apt-get install libsasl2-dev libldap2-

Solution 1:

As described, the command RUN appmanage.py appconfig appAdd.json run successfully as expected and reported that System check identified no issues (0 silenced)..

Moreover, the command "insisted" on killing itself and return exit code of 137. The minimum changes for this to work is to update your Dockerfile to be like

...
#Run a script
#Note: Here appmanage.py is a file inside the pip installed location(site-packages), but it will be accessible directly without cd to the folder
RUN appmanage.py appconfig appAdd.json || true
...

This will just forcefully ignore the return exit code from the previous command and carry on the build.
