Mention any other details that might be useful

I tried to create a container on the Linux/AMD64 machine, using seabreeze/azure-mesh-counter:0.5-alpine docker image but I am getting the below exceptions and the container does not get started. Please refer to the logs below for more details.

“Unhandled Exception: System.FormatException: Unrecognized argument format: 'bash'.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions to fix this.

I also tried to build the docker image by running the build.linux.sh file. The build was successful in the Linux/AMD64 machine but it failed in Linux/ARM64 machine. The ARM64 build was failing since the counterservice uses dotnet framework version 2.0 which does not have an ARM64 support.

I made some changes in the dockerfile and in the repository to upgrade the dotnet framework to the latest version 5.0. With these changes, I am able to build docker images on Linux/ARM64 machines.

However, in the docker image, the counterservice.dll is for intel and not for ARM64. May I know how you are building this dll?

Do you have any plans on adding arm64 support and releasing arm64 images?

If required, I am happy to contribute.
