I am attempting to build a Docker image for my Python web server, but I keep receiving the error message No matching distribution found for <package-name>. In my case the package I was trying to install was alembic 1.11.1 but as you will see bellow, this is not about a specific package.
This error only occurs when I am connected to the tp-link wi-fi extender.
In detail, the error is the following:
$ docker build -t test

On the other hand, when Ι am connected directly to the router, running the same command (i.e. docker build -t test) builds the image without any issue.
In case this was not a network issue I have tried the following (while connected to the wifi extender):
I specified the platform as x86_64, as suggested in other threads, but this did not solve the problem. Furthermore, I have also tried changing the base image to various other versions, such as python:3.10-bullseye, python:3.10-bookworm, and python:3.10-slim.
I have also tried deleting the specific alembic version but the problem still persisted. Then I tried deleting the whole alembic requirement but then I would get the same error for the next package, meaning that this is a package-agnostic error, not being able to install any dependency of my project.
The Dockerfile I am using is this:
FROM --platform=x86_64 python:3.10-alpine
WORKDIR /code
COPY ./requirements.txt /code/requirements.txt
COPY ./alembic.ini /code/alembic.ini
RUN pip install --no-cache-dir --upgrade -r /code/requirements.txt
COPY ./app /code/app
EXPOSE 80
CMD ["uvicorn", "app.main:app", "--host", "0.0.0.0", "--port", "80"]
the requirements.txt file is this (I repeat, the packages here do not play any role on error that occurs):
alembic==1.11.1
anyio==3.6.2
bcrypt==4.0.1
certifi==2023.5.7
click==8.1.3
colorama==0.4.6
dnspython==2.3.0
ecdsa==0.18.0
OS and tool versions:
- Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS x86_64
- Docker version 24.0.2, build cb74dfc
- Wi-Fi extender device: TL-WA860RE
