How to fix "ERROR: No build stage in current context"

docker_context.txt

Problem:

$ docker-compose up --build
Building xxx
ERROR: No build stage in current context

Analysis:

Dockerfile

# you do something BEFORE the 'FROM' statement
COPY --chown=root:root /php /var/www/html/
FROM php:5.6.39-apache

Solution:

# do something AFTER the 'FROM' statement
FROM php:5.6.39-apache
COPY --chown=root:root /php /var/www/html/

just to add one notice, the maintainer tag should not be placed above FROM clause, as the first statement must be FROM clause.

👍 bravo thank you!

@d0zingcat THANK YOU. This was making my build fail with no clear explanation.
