I am a newbie and already know how RASA works. But I want to use a container with Azure remote storage, but it doesn’t work.

I added environment variables to the dockerfile and built the image.

============= dockerfile =====================

# Extend the official Rasa SDK image

FROM rasa/rasa:latest

# Add a custom system library (e.g. git)

RUN apt-get update && \

apt-get install -y git

# Add a custom python library (e.g. jupyter)

RUN pip install jieba

RUN pip install azure-storage-blob

# ENV for remote

ENV AZURE\_CONTAINER=rasa

ENV AZURE\_ACCOUNT\_NAME=name

ENV AZURE\_ACCOUNT\_KEY=key

====================== command ==========================

docker run felaray/rasazhtw:5 run -m nlu-20190808-072018.tar.gz --remote-storage azure

======================= log file =========================
