I am new to Docker and I trying to setup a Laravel project inside a Docker. I successfully built and ran the container. Everything worked fine.

However, after removing all containers and images and attempting to rebuild, the process now fails, even though it worked previously. Here is my logs:

 ERROR [app internal] load build context
=> transferring context: 2.92GB
archive/tar: unknown file mode ?rwxr-xr-x

This is my Dockerfile:

FROM php:8.2-apache

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
    libpng-dev \
    libjpeg-dev \
    libfreetype6-dev \
    zip \
    unzip \
    git \
    curl \
    && docker-php-ext-install pdo pdo_mysql gd

COPY --from=composer:latest /usr/bin/composer /usr/bin/composer

WORKDIR /var/www/html

COPY . .

RUN git config --global --add safe.directory '*'
RUN git config --system --add safe.directory /var/www/html
RUN git config --system --add safe.directory /var/www/html/vendor/theseer/tokenizer

RUN chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html
RUN chmod -R 775 /var/www/html

RUN rm -rf vendor
RUN composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader --no-interaction

RUN chmod -R 777 storage bootstrap/cache

EXPOSE 80

CMD ["apache2-foreground"]

What I've tried:

• Running docker system prune -a to remove all containers, images, and caches.
• Checking the .dockerignore file to ensure unnecessary files are excluded.
• Deleting node_modules and package-lock.json, then running npm install again.
• Checking Docker and Composer versions 4.38.0

Questions:

• Why does the build fail now when it worked before?
• Is there something being lost when I delete the build that prevents it from rebuilding correctly?

I am not sure why this is happening, especially since the same setup worked before. Has anyone encountered this issue before? How can I fix it?

Any help would be appreciated!
