Dockerfile custom entry point not working in 9+?
I am trying to create a Dockerfile with my VPN pre-populated through a configuration script called configure.sh.
Dockerfile:
FROM <hidden>/solace-pubsub-enterprise:9.12.1.17 ADD config /config ADD wait-for-it.sh /wait-for-it.sh ADD configure.sh /configure.sh ADD start.sh /start.sh USER root RUN chmod +x /wait-for-it.sh RUN chmod +x /configure.sh RUN chmod +x /start.sh HEALTHCHECK --interval=30s --timeout=30s CMD /wait-for-it.sh ENTRYPOINT ["/start.sh"]
start.sh:
#!/bin/bash /configure.sh & /usr/sbin/boot.sh
Container launches unhealthy because calls to http://localhost:8080/SEMP/v2 time out i.e. solace seems to not respond. Yet I can see the solacedaemon is running with docker top:

If I change Dockerfile ENTRYPOINT as follows:
ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/sbin/boot.sh"]
then container will be healthy, but of course I do not get my pre-populated VPN.
I should add that this Dockerfile used to work with the older version 8.5.0.1008-enterprise.
Thankful for any assistance!

Hi @jahwag,
you earned an extra point for creativity - never seen such an idea for configuring a broker before :-)
To understand your idea:
just assuming that /usr/sbin/boot.sh is the standard entry point and will start the broker:
If you do configure BEFORE starting the broker (and your own entry point first runs configure.sh in the background and then starts the broker)... how can you ensure, that you configure something running ?
The most common solution nowadays to configure a broker is using SEMP or tools like ansible (that use SEMP in the background).

Thanks but I cannot take credit for the idea, it was originally by a coworker of mine who left the organisation :)
The configure.sh waits in the background for solace to start before it proceeds to use SEMP v2 to configure VPNs:
#!/usr/bin/env bash echo "Waiting for Solace to start." echo "" /wait-for-it.sh "localhost:8080" --timeout=60 -- echo "Solace is up" echo "Configuring Solace" echo "" curl -u admin:admin -s -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d @/config/domainevent/vpn.json http://localhost:8080/SEMP/v2/config/msgVpns echo "" ...
The issue is that while this worked in the past with 8.5, with 9.12.1.17 solace is unresponsive.
The console output implies that the solace daemon starts successfully yet it does not become accessible so configure.sh waits forever:

This has me stumped!
If I use /usr/sbin/boot.sh as entry point and then connect to a terminal inside the docker container then I am able to successfully run configure.sh.
