In Docker Compose, E404 config doesn't work

[orsonjones]

When using docker compose, the E404 config doesn't work. It seems to be the case that E404 is only allowed in the primary config file (/etc/httpd.conf or -c /path/to/httpd.conf)

Updating docker-compose.yml to include the config path fixes it.

eg.: add this line to the example docker-compose.yml
command: /busybox-httpd -f -v -p 3000 -c /home/static/httpd.conf

I also just ran into this as well. This Dockerfile:

FROM lipanski/docker-static-website:2.6.0

# serve index.html in place of missing files (single page app)
COPY <<EOF httpd.conf
E404:index.html
EOF

COPY ./build /home/static

Prints httpd: config error 'E404:index.html' in 'httpd.conf' on startup and serves the default 404 page. Explicitly setting the config file path in CMD serves the configured page on 404.

FROM lipanski/docker-static-website:2.6.0

# serve index.html in place of missing files (single page app)
COPY <<EOF httpd.conf
E404:index.html
EOF

CMD ["/busybox-httpd", "-f", "-v", "-p", "3000", "-c", "httpd.conf"]

COPY ./build /home/static
