Error: Unable to find good bind path format

[tainguyen206]

This issue just started to happen to me when packaging package with docker: I couldn't find answer anywhere. Not sure if this is with serverless or this plugin.

Please include the following information:

• Version of serverless-python-requirements used
• Output of docker version
• Output of docker run --rm -v c:/Users/taing:/test busybox ls -lah /test
• Output of docker run --rm -v /c/Users/taing:/test busybox ls -lah /test
• Any recent changes you've made. Did this start after a version upgrade? Docker upgrade? Windows update?

[tainguyen206]

I did have windows update recently but not sure about docker.

I did update serverless-python-requirements recently as well. But not sure if it's related.

That's weird. Everything seems in place. What version did you use before this? Also, please paste the output of:

docker run --rm -v c:/Users/taing/Desktop/projects/wm-tc:/test alpine ls /test/serverless.yml

If you want to help debugging this, lib/pip.js line 40 could have some debug prints. Specifically you can print ps.stdout and if any exception is caught. That's the part that seems to be failing for you.

I had this error as well and managed to figure it out.
the tryBindPath function in /lib/docker.js assumes that the serverless config file is called serverless.yml, in my case it was called serverless.yaml. So for a quick fix, just change the name of that file.

Since Serverless accepts configs with the .yaml extension, they should probably also be supported by this plugin.

I had the same problem after clean installation of serverless and serverless-python-requirements.

How I fixed this:

1. Open Docker for Windows
2. Go to Shared Drives
3. Make sure C is shared. If C is already shared, un-share it and share it again

[kichik]

@mrpgraae I've created a PR for that #213.
@illagrenan that should already be covered by the documentation, but it would be nice to detect it and print a good error message. That said, I don't think that's what @LucasNP had because they were able to confirm file sharing is working.

[mrpgraae]

@kichik
That was fast!
Thank you for the nice plugin btw. Works great, now that I got around the filename issue 😄

[dschep]

Closed by #213

@mrpgraae (should've asked before i merged, oh well). could you test this? install this plugin with

npm i UniteIncome/serverless-python-requirements

[jfaraklit]

I have the same issue. The filename is not an issue in my end. What else could go wrong to get this error?
I am on windows and my docker seems to be working fine.

Hey Windows-ey guys and other contributors. I was looking at this getBindPath function, and recently used it in my PR and found it... a bit lacking. It currently just searches through a list of files we expect to be there, shouldn't this function be modified to CREATE a file at the start of it which it then can test mounting in Docker, and then delete that file afterwards? It seems a bit... silly, to have to check all the different possible files that might be there, and additionally its current implementation is then limited to only a folder that contains serverless repos, not any folder, as it should be imho. I almost made this modification in #165 but decided against it for now. I'd love some thoughts/input/feedback before I just go and do it, wouldn't that be smarter?

[kichik]

I prefer not changing things when possible. You don't always have permissions, sometimes you crash and leave things behind, and in this case there should always be a file we know.
