I am trying to run “mvn clean install -e” in my Dockerfile after fetching the the codebase from GIT. But for some reason I get an error saying:

/bin/sh: mvn: not found

My Dockerfile looks something like this:

# AS <NAME> to name this stage as maven
FROM scratch
LABEL MAINTAINER="Sam"

#SETUP Ubuntu ENVIRONMENT
FROM ubuntu:latest as ubuntu

RUN export http_proxy=MY_HTTP_PROXY && export https_proxy=MY_HTTPS_PROXY

#INSTALL MAVEN
RUN mkdir -p $HOME/maven3 && cd $HOME/maven3
FROM maven:3.8.6-eclipse-temurin-11-alpine AS maven
ENV M2_HOME=$HOME/maven3

#INSTALL JAVA
RUN mkdir -p $HOME/jdk11 && cd $HOME/jdk11
FROM eclipse-temurin:11-jdk-alpine AS jdk
ENV JAVA_HOME=$HOME/jdk11

ENV PATH=$PATH:$M2_HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin

RUN apk update && apk add git && apk add net-tools procps openssh-client openssh-server

RUN mkdir -p $HOME/images/lib/ && cd $HOME/images/lib/

RUN git clone MY_GIT_URL

RUN mvn clean install -e

But when I run docker build I get the following error at the end:


Step 15/15 : RUN mvn clean install -e
 ---> Running in 264c505d131a
/bin/sh: mvn: not found
The command '/bin/sh -c mvn clean install -e' returned a non-zero code: 127

I am new to Docker, so learning it as I got along. But this one got me stumped. Any help would be appreciated.

I have just realized I had my response as a draft without actually sending it. Sorry about that. I guess you have already solved this issue, but this is what I wanted to send.

You don’t have maven in your last stage where you want to use it. A stage is just a definition of one build. Programs in the previous stages will not be in the last stage.
