docker无法运行已经存在的go输出文件

Question

I'm building a multi-stage Dockerfile for my go project.

FROM golang:latest as builder

COPY ./go.mod /app/go.mod
COPY ./go.sum /app/go.sum

#exporting go1.11 module support variable
ENV GO111MODULE=on

WORKDIR /app/

#create vendor directory
RUN go mod download

COPY . /app/

RUN go mod vendor

#building source code
RUN go build -mod=vendor -o main -v ./src/


FROM alpine:latest
RUN apk --no-cache add ca-certificates
COPY --from=builder /app/main /app/main
WORKDIR /app/

ARG port="80"
ENV PORT=$port
EXPOSE $PORT

CMD ["./main"]

When I'm running the image, it throws error:

standard_init_linux.go:207: exec user process caused "no such file or directory"

I've verified that the 'main' file exist in /app/main. I also tried to give executable permission by adding

chmod +x /app/main

but still it doesn't work. What can possibly be wrong?

The "latest" version of the golang image is debian based, which uses libc. Alpine uses musl. If you do not compile with CGO_ENABLED=0, networking libraries will link to libc and the no such file or directory error point to a missing library. You can check these shared library links with ldd /app/main. A few solutions I can think of:

• compile your program with CGO_ENABLED=0
• switch your build image to FROM golang:alpine
• change your second stage to be FROM debian
