[Podman] Re: How to build image for own jar file

TLDR: You will not be able to run graphical applications in containers.

What do you expect to see as a result of launching the gui application? There is no graphics system in alpine by default, even if you add it there, the graphics window somehow needs to be displayed on your local machine, this will require certain settings to broadcast the graphics system over the network. containers usually contain services that are accessible over the network through an open network port С уважением, А. И. пн, 4 дек. 2023 г., 21:34 Thomas <t.schneider(a)getgoogleoff.me&gt;: Hello, I need more guidance on this task, and I think one should restart from scratch. This java app "masterpassword-gui" is obviously a graphical frontend, but I think I didn't reflect this in my dockerfile. Currently I'm using this dockerfile to build the image: # Filename: mpw-gui FROM alpine:latest RUN apk add openjdk17-jre-headless openjdk17-jre COPY files/masterpassword-gui.jar /home/thomas/Software/masterpassword-gui.jar CMD ["java", "-jar", "/home/thomas/Software/masterpassword-gui.jar"] tree /home/thomas/Software/container/mpg-gui/ Software/container/mpg-gui/ ├── Dockerfile └── files      └── masterpassword-gui.jar 1 directories, 2 files The build is successful, but running the container fails. Could you please advise how to complete this task?
