I'm trying to build the image on my Apple M1. This is the error I get. It's hard for me to debug, any suggestion what is it about?

[smolendawid]

The progress I made is adding --platform=linux/amd64 to the build command

docker build --platform=linux/amd64 . -t duckling

returns:

 > [builder 6/7] RUN stack setup:
#13 18.70 Killed

but at least the stack is found.

Same issue here

If you use colima I found this which solved it for me at least explains the error.

Your VM probably needs more memory. (Edit: A lot more memory it seems)

The default VM created by Colima has 2 CPUs, 2GiB memory and 60GiB storage.

Building this from scratch requires a lot of memory. Try this:

I tried this:

# 50GB RAM and 100GB disk space
colima start --cpu 8 --memory 50 --disk 100

but the build process failed after about an hour with:

I tried --memory 8 but ran into:

With --memory 16 it stopped here:

@aleneum did you get the build to work?+

Hello @tmbo,

did you get the build to work?+

unfortunately, I was not able to successfully compile duckling for amd64 with an M1 Macbook and colima. Seems like the amd64 emulation with colima just requires too much memory. But ramping up memory for the VM was enough to get docker images with compiled duckling versions to work with botpress which was my actual goal.

You might be interested in #703 which provides arm64 docker images.
