Docker V2, cant seem execute command passed in from steps in YAML

I have defind my steps and am using the v2 version and do have a docker file, but it seems that everytime the container runs it fails to execute the command passed in through the yaml decleration.

my intent is to have a build pipeline with the following steps:

  1. simple prebuild scripts.

  2. container is run using docker file which installs all necessary dependencies, i believe these steps are cached so there wont be a performance hit, using the installed dependencies, I will try to navigate to the appropriate folder using an env var and build the .net solution. docker file then copies all files into an artifact folder using copy command.(i am not sure how this would behave on multiple container runs, if better way possible then please do suggest)

  3. the same container is run in this step, dependencies are installed, I will then try to access the artifacts folder created in the previous step, navigate to the tests folder using an env variable and run the tests.

  4. if the above step has succeeded I will run the container again, install dependencies that allow for deployment to AWS and try to access the artifacts folder and publish the built solution to aws.

(if there is a way to include env variables in a seprate file that would be great, please do let me know)

if i was to change the entrypoint to this:

COPY ./ /artifacts
ENTRYPOINT [ "sh", "-c", "bash"]

then I would not get an error but still it seems like nothing is happening and the scripts are not being executed:

When building and running dockerfile locally it seems to be able to find the script and run them:

Hi @ftaran!

Sorry you’re having trouble getting that setup to work with Buildkite Agent v2. The v2 Docker support has long been deprecated, and I’ve had trouble reproducing it locally :pensive:

Have you tried writing plan bash scripts in your repository, that manually perform the Docker commands you need?

One other thing is that buildkite steps are meant to be stateless, so I’m worried that your steps could run on different agents so the pre-build and build are run somewhere, and then the unit-test is run somewhere else. Perhaps all the commands should be run in a single shell-script?
