I generated the Docker image from Dockerfile :

There is a problem in Dockerfile ? A permission to change or other thing ?

Thanks.

This looks like a permissions issue on the file, since you are using a different user than root I’m wondering if maybe that could be the potential issue and it doesn’t have the proper permissions to the file or folder to create it. When you do the interactive learning it creates that dot file.

3

I’m using root to launch the container rasa.

But i saw that the user in the container of rasa/rasa:latest is not root but other.

I forgot to you mentioned ^

5

I changed the permissions of the file with chmod a+rwx story_graph.dot and it working well now.

thks.
