Docker with ngnix and angular stuck at start worker process 30

Question

Im trying to containerize angular application. here's my docker file

FROM nginx
LABEL author="sreeya"
COPY ./config/nginx.conf /etc/nginx/ngnix.cong

I used

docker build -t nginx-angular -f nginx.dockerfile .
docker run -p 8080:80 -v $(pwd)/dist:/usr/share/nginx/html nginx-angular

build was a success, but docker run got stuck at

start worker process 30

Here's the full output

you're missing a ENTRYPOINT line in your Dockerfile – Sherborn

Im following a tutorial and github.com/DanWahlin/Angular-Core-Concepts and this link has the code. Please notice that the docker file has no ENTRYPOINT and it seems to be working for him – Swats

hey! according to those docs, youre supposed to use docker-compose, not docker – Sherborn

Answer 1

The container is up and running, it didn't stuck there. The container is run in attached mode by default. You can either run the container in detached mode using command -

docker run -d -p 8080:80 -v $(pwd)/dist:/usr/share/nginx/html nginx-angular

Or leave it open and try checking container status in new terminal using command -

sudo docker ps

yeah, but when I visit myip:8080, I see 403 forbidden - nginx. any idea how to fix that? – Swats

Add a conf under /etc/nginc/conf.d/ or /etc/ngix/sites-enabled inside docker and add server location block in it. – Axiology
