Dockerfile

EXPOSE 8080

ENTRYPOINT ["/serve.py"]

serve.py

#!/usr/bin/env python

from BaseHTTPServer import BaseHTTPRequestHandler,HTTPServer

PORT = 8080

class handler(BaseHTTPRequestHandler):

    def do_GET(self):
        self.send_response(200)
        self.send_header('Content-type','text/html')
        self.end_headers()
        self.wfile.write("Hello World!")
        return

try:
    server = HTTPServer(('', PORT), handler)
    print 'listening on port' , PORT
    server.serve_forever()

except KeyboardInterrupt:
    server.socket.close()

The serve.py fails with the attached error. To fix the error changed the

self.wfile.write("Hello World!")

to

self.wfile.write("Hello World!".encode())
