from the Dockerfile doc… https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#copy

COPY obeys the following rules:

The path must be inside the context of the build; you cannot COPY …/something /something, because the first step of a docker build is to send the context directory (and subdirectories) to the docker daemon.

I think u have to use ADD instead

ADD obeys the same rules. Also it automatically unpacks archives, which can be confusing; usually you want COPY. In any case you can never reach outside the directory tree that contains the Dockerfile, and using absolute paths like this definitely doesn’t work.
