Error : Invalid Reference Format in Dockerfile ubuntu 14.04, cuda 8.0, cudnn 6.0

I am trying to build an image from the Dockerfile of specifications ubuntu 14.04, cuda 8.0, cudnn 6.0 (devel) from here.

I saved the dockerfile on my local system When I use docker build PATH command where

PATH = /home/anil/Desktop/container

I get the following error :

Sending build context to Docker daemon   2.56kB
Step 1/7 : ARG IMAGE_NAME
Step 2/7 : FROM ${IMAGE_NAME}:8.0-devel-ubuntu14.04
invalid reference format

I am using Docker version 18.03.1-ce, build 9ee9f40

Please help me. Thank you

Solution

  • You need to pass an argument called IMAGE_NAME during the build like this:

    docker build --build-arg IMAGE_NAME=nvidia/cuda .

    The output:

    Step 1/7 : ARG IMAGE_NAME
Step 2/7 : FROM ${IMAGE_NAME}:8.0-devel-ubuntu14.04
8.0-devel-ubuntu14.04: Pulling from nvidia/cuda
