Can't Run Curl Command Inside My Docker Container


Answer :

curl: command not found

is a big hint, you have to install it with :

apt-get update; apt-get install curl

Ran into this same issue while using the CURL command inside my Dockerfile. As Gilles pointed out, we have to install curl first. These are the commands to be added in the 'Dockerfile'.

FROM ubuntu:16.04  # Install prerequisites RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \ curl CMD /bin/bash

So I added curl AFTER my docker container was running.

(This was for debugging the container...I did not need a permanent addition)

I ran my image

docker run -d -p 8899:8080 my-image:latest

(the above makes my "app" available on my machine on port 8899) (not important to this question)

Then I listed and created terminal into the running container.

docker ps docker exec -it my-container-id-here /bin/sh

If the exec command above does not work, check this SOF article:

Error: Cannot Start Container: stat /bin/sh: no such file or directory"

then I ran:

apk

just to prove it existed in the running container, then i ran:

apk add curl

and got the below:

apk add curl

fetch http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.8/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz

fetch http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.8/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz

(1/5) Installing ca-certificates (20171114-r3)

(2/5) Installing nghttp2-libs (1.32.0-r0)

(3/5) Installing libssh2 (1.8.0-r3)

(4/5) Installing libcurl (7.61.1-r1)

(5/5) Installing curl (7.61.1-r1)

Executing busybox-1.28.4-r2.trigger

Executing ca-certificates-20171114-r3.trigger

OK: 18 MiB in 35 packages

then i ran curl:

/ # curl curl: try 'curl --help' or 'curl --manual' for more information / #

Note, to get "out" of the drilled-in-terminal-window, I had to open a new terminal window and stop the running container:

docker ps docker stop my-container-id-here

APPEND:

If you don't have "apk" (which depends on which base image you are using), then try to use "another" installer. From other answers here, you can try:

apt-get -qq update  apt-get -qq -y install curl

Are Regular VACUUM ANALYZE Still Recommended Under 9.1?

Answer : VACUUM is only needed on updated or deleted rows in non-temporary tables. Obviously you're doing lots of INSERTs but it's not obvious from the description that you're also doing lots of UPDATEs or DELETEs. These operations can be tracked with the pg_stat_all_tables view, specifically the n_tup_upd and n_tup_del columns. Also, even more to the point, there is a n_dead_tup column that tells, per table, how much rows need to be vacuumed. (see Monitoring statistics in the doc for functions and views related to statistics gathering). A possible strategy in your case would be to suppress the scheduled VACUUM, keeping an eye on this view and checking on which tables the n_dead_tup is going up significantly. Then apply the aggressive VACUUM to these tables only. This will be a win if there are large tables whose rows never get deleted nor updated and the aggressive VACUUM is really necessary only on smaller tables. But keep running the ANALYZE for the optimiz

Can Feynman Diagrams Be Used To Represent Any Perturbation Theory?

Answer : Diagram machinery works also for perturbation theory in classical statistical mechanics and classical field theories. Generally, various kinds of diagrams constitute a pictorial way of talking about tensor products and their contractions while hiding the multi-linear algebra from the layman. In the simplest case, vertices (or blobs) represent vectors, matrices, tensors; vertices have ingoing and/or outgoing ports; ingoing ports denote (contravariant) ro indices; outgoing ports denote (covariant) co indices; directed arcs between blobs give a pair of equal indices summed over; different base spaces ⇔ \Leftrightarrow ⇔ different arc types; symmetric tensors ⇔ \Leftrightarrow ⇔ undirected diagrams; no labels are needed for internal lines. In many cases, the directed arcs are decorated (as thin, thick, broken,wavy, curly lines), each decoration indicating the presence of a so-called propagator, a function of its label to use as a weight in the sum, which may beco
