Q:

Docker: Running dotnet publish -o /output results in a nonzero error on CLI

I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS,

Docker-compose v 1.18.0-rc2, build 189468b
Docker version 17.12.0-ce-rc1, build ee2f943

Running this command: dotnet publish -o /output with docker results in this error: 

ERROR: Service 'generator' failed to build: The command '/bin/sh -c 
dotnet publish -c Release -o out' returned a non-zero code: 145

I've installed the .NET SDK for Ubuntu and not sure how to resolve this error; it just won't create that publish folder; here's dotnet --info

joel@worker-2:~/workspace/asp (copy)/api$ dotnet --info .NET Command

Link to the same question worded differently with more error logs

A:

The error you are seeing is because your project contains a global.json file that pins the required SDK version to 2.0.2. However, the docker images contain newer SDK versions (current one is 2.1.3) which. Because no 2.0.2 SDK is present in the docker image you use to build, it just errors out.
