io.fabric8:docker-maven-plugin:0.15.3:build failed

Question

I am trying to build a docker image for my spring-boot application. This is my Dockerfile:

FROM ubuntu
ENV JAVA_VERSION 8u31
ENV BUILD_VERSION b13
# Upgrading system
RUN apt-get -y upgrade
RUN apt-get -y install wget
# Downloading & Config Java 8
RUN wget --no-cookies --no-check-certificate --header "Cookie: 
oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" 
 "http://download.oracle.com/otn- 
 pub/java/jdk/$JAVA_VERSION-$BUILD_VERSION/jdk-$JAVA_VERSION-linux- 
x64.rpm" -O /tmp/jdk-8-linux-x64.rpm
RUN apt-get -y install /tmp/jdk-8-linux-x64.rpm

RUN alternatives -- install  /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/bin/java          
1081      
RUN alternatives --install /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk- 
amd64/jre/bin/java   1081      
 RUN alternatives --install /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/bin/java          
1081     


  EXPOSE 8089
  #install Spring Boot artifact
    VOLUME /tmp
    ADD /maven/sfg-thymeleaf-course-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar sfg-thymeleaf- 
  course.jar
   RUN sh -c 'touch /sfg-thymeleaf-course.jar'
     ENTRYPOINT ["java","-Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom","- 
   jar","/sfg-thymeleaf-course.jar"]

This is my pom.xml file where i have my io.fabric8 plugin there:

When I am trying to build a docker image using mvn package docker:build i am getting an error :

Failed to execute goal io.fabric8:docker-maven-plugin:0.15.3:build (default-cli) on project detailsapp: Execution default-cli of goal io.fabric8:docker-maven-plugin:0.15.3:build failed. NullPointerException -> [Help 1]

Can Someone help with the solution, It will be grate. Thank you!

This works for me, to build docker image and push to docker hub, I don't use a docker file, fabric creates it:

mvn clean install fabric8:build fabric8:push

My pom looks like this:
