Docker : OCI runtime create failed: executable file not found in $PATH

Question

The error message I am getting while running the container:

Docker: Error response from daemon: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:348: starting container process caused "exec: \"mkdir NNEEWW\": executable file not found in $PATH": unknown

My Dockerfile:

FROM python:3

COPY . /

RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r /requirements.txt

EXPOSE 5678

CMD ["mkdir NNEEWW", "&", "jupyter", "notebook", "--ip=0.0.0.0", "--port=5678", "--allow-root"]

Answer 1

You need to extract "mkdir NNEEWW", "&"* outside the CMD as in docker CMD is used to run the executable, you can anyway create a new folder before the CMD command if you need by using the command RUN mkdir NNEEWW.
