Can't build ASP.Net container

Question

Windows 10 version 1607
Docker for Windows: Version 17.06.1-ce-win24 (13025)

I'm trying to build a asp .net 4.6 container using the provided docs and its not working.

I'm using this provided dockerfile. I copied it to the root of one of my asp .net solutions.

And the I ran this command:

$ docker build -t aspnet-site --build-arg site_root=/

This is the output

PS> docker build -t aspnet-site . --build-arg 'site_root=/'

So it does say this in the docs (so I tried commenting out the servicemonitor stuff and it worked):

There is no need to specify an ENTRYPOINT in your Dockerfile since the microsoft/aspnet base image already includes an entrypoint application that monitors the status of the IIS World Wide Web Publishing Service (W3SVC).

Answer 1

Try with this dockerfile instead. It will use the aspnet image:

FROM microsoft/aspnet
SHELL ["powershell", "-Command", "$ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop';"]

EXPOSE 80

RUN Remove-WebSite -Name 'Default Web Site'  
RUN New-Website -Name 'YourSiteName' -Port 80 -PhysicalPath 'C:\YourFolderName' -ApplicationPool '.NET v4.5'

ADD "LocalFolderPath" /YourFolderName
