Synchronizing package databases

Question

I wrote Dockerfile:

FROM base/archlinux
RUN pacman -Syu

When Docker runs second step: RUN -Syu

I see something like this:

::Synchronizing package databases...

error: failed retrieving file 'core.db' from mirror.leaseweb.net : Resolving timed out after 10000 miliseconds

etc...

Is something wrong with base/archlinux? link to hub.docker

Answer 1

To answer your concrete question; no I do not think there is something wrong with the version of base/archlinux I am using (imageId 12e0bd421505). I ran the exact same Dockerfile and it works until the question Proceed with installation? [Y/n]. I think it expects manual input there, and it fails...

Can you make sure that from the machine where you're building from, that mirror.leaseweb.net is accessible?
