Unable to build images on arm64

[palmsey]

I have a task definition like

platform: linux
image_resource:
  type: registry-image
  source:
    repository: concourse/oci-build-task
inputs:
  - name: repo
outputs:
  - name: my-image
run:
  path: build
params:
  CONTEXT: repo

When I run it on my M1 Mac, when it gets to the first RUN command in the Dockerfile I get the error:

#7 0.260 container_linux.go:380: starting container process caused: process_linux.go:393: copying bootstrap data to pipe caused: write init-p: broken pipe

When I run it in a linux/amd64 EC2 instance, the same task completes successfully. I'm using the docker-compose from the QuickStart, but with the concourse image changed to rdclda/concourse:7.8.2 since concourse/concourse won't run on my M1.

The full file is:

version: '3'

  concourse-db:

      POSTGRES_DB: concourse

Hi there @palmsey

I'm running into a similar issue, so I was wondering if you ever got this to work and kept a working config somewhere ?

Thanks in advance!

Sorry, I didn't find a solution for this and eventually switched to GH Actions.

thanks for the prompt reply @palmsey !

For What It's Worth (FWIW), I did eventually manage to get this going. More details on https://github.com/concourse/concourse/issues/8719#issuecomment-1676821087
