Build and push image to ACR - ##[error]base name (${BUILD_IMAGE}) should not be blank-CodePudding

I am trying to build and push an image to Azure Container Registry using Azure DevOps pipeline, but I am getting the following error:

"base name (${BUILD_IMAGE}) should not be blank"

when trying to build the image. I have checked my pipeline configuration file and I couldn't find the variable BUILD_IMAGE defined. From the error message, it seems that the variable is being used in the FROM statement in the Dockerfile but I don't know where it's supposed to be defined. I have checked the pipeline configuration file, the script that triggers the pipeline, and the command-line but I couldn't find where the variable is defined. I have also checked if the image aquariumcms with tag $(Build.BuildId) or 510914 exists in the registry rgaquariumtestimagewesteu.azurecr.io and if it's accessible from the pipeline but I couldn't find any issues. My pipeline is using the Docker@2 and DockerCompose@0 tasks, and the container registry is rgaquariumtestimagewesteu.azurecr.io. How can I add the variable BUILD_IMAGE so it's no longer blank and the pipeline can build and push the image to the container registry?

The pipeline

The expectation was that the pipeline would build and push the image to the Azure Container Registry specified in the pipeline configuration file. However, the pipeline is failing with the error message "base name (${BUILD_IMAGE}) should not be blank" when trying to build the image, indicating that the BUILD_IMAGE variable is empty or not defined.

Although I receive the following error log

CodePudding user response：

this is working for me, it overwrites the "latest" version in the repo as well as creates a new independent version based on the BuildID.

Under build added below tags.

  tags: |
      latest
      $(Build.BuildId)

Here is my sample azure-pipeline.yml
