[Bug]: Error after "devbox add" (using docker jetpackio/devbox)
Current Behavior (bug) Docker Version: 24.0.6 OS: Sonoma 14.0 Macbook Pro (Apple M1 Pro)
Steps to reproduce:
- Use the offical jetpackio devbox image (https://hub.docker.com/r/jetpackio/devbox)
- devbox init
- devbox add awscli # or any other package
- the package is installing, but afterwards the process hangs
- Results in the error message below
build_node > [1/1] awscli@latest: Success
build_node > still running...

build_node > Error: There was an internal error. Run with DEVBOX_DEBUG=1 for a detailed error message, and consider reporting it at https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox/issues
build_node finished in 53 s FAIL 1
Expected Behavior (fix) Simply installing devbox packages should work with the docker image of jetpackio.
Additional context devbox version: 0.7.1 contents of devbox.json: empty project (therefore: devbox init)
@spe888 can you export DEVBOX_DEBUG=1 prior to running devbox add and then share the output? It'll print more information during the failure. This will help us diagnose the problem.
@savil Yes, here is the full output:
parsing and downloads finished in 28 ms
build_node starting jetpackio/devbox:latest (build)
build_node copied to docker volumes in 884 ms
build_node imported artifacts in 19 ms
build_node $ export DEVBOX_DEBUG=1

The error seems to be: error: the group 'nixbld' specified in 'build-users-group' does not exist. This indicates that the nix-installation didn't work properly.
thanks @spe888 for reporting this. Savil and I looked into this yesterday and found 2 ways to workaround this:
- Using the root user installation for devbox image i.e.,
FROM jetpackio/devbox-root-user. But this image isn't supported in M1 macos (arm64) cpu architecture. - Setting up your Dockerfile to follow the same steps as
devbox generate dockerfile. If you rundevbox generate dockerfilein a your project directory (add--forceto override existing dockerfile), it adds a couple of permission statements that are important for your project to work. Besides copying the devbox.json and devbox.lock files into container, this dockerfile addsWORKDIR /codeandRUN sudo chown -R "${DEVBOX_USER}:${DEVBOX_USER}" /code. If you add those lines in your Dockerfile it should also be able to installawsclior other packages. The variable${DEVBOX_USER}is just a user nameddevboxwe create when installing nix in the docker image. Since nix is installed in single-user mode and that user can't be root, we create adevboxuser and install nix under that name. Setting the owner of your project directory to the samedevboxuser in the container sets the permissions correctly and allows nix to operate normally without throwing the errors you're seeing.
Please let us know if this fixes your issue so that we can add these guidelines in our docs and dockerhub's description as well.
@AbdeenM since this issue is about devbox-in-docker, I think your problem is unrelated. Can you try following the thread about updating the nix install with MacOS Sequoia and open a new issue if that doesn't solve it for you?
I'm going to close this issue as stale. @spe888 feel free to reopen if you are still facing this.
