Docker unable to locate package (wkhtmltopdf) while building

EDIT

While troubleshooting I'm getting different errors:

...
Err:1 http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye InRelease
  Temporary failure resolving 'deb.debian.org'
...

I'm guessing it has something to do with my firewall settings(nftables) Running
docker run busybox nslookup google.com gives me
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached so the docker has no connection to the outside?

Systems

Dev environment: Ubuntu 22.04
Prod environment: debian 10.12 64bit / Linux 4.19.0-20-amd64

Dockerfile inside my node backend folder

FROM node:slim

# Install wkhtmltopdf
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install -y wkhtmltopdf

RUN npm install -g pm2@latest

WORKDIR /var/api

COPY . .

RUN npm i

EXPOSE 10051-10053

# Start PM2 as PID 1 process
ENTRYPOINT ["pm2-runtime"]
CMD ["process.json"]

When building this file on my dev system (Ubuntu 22.04) it works fine.

However, deploying it go my server and letting it build, I get this output:

What I have tried

According to Docker docs:

Using apt-get update alone in a RUN statement causes caching issues and subsequent apt-get install instructions fail.

So for your case, you should do:

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y wkhtmltopdf 

Instead of:

RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install -y wkhtmltopdf

I found the solution, problem was nftables and docker. Docker adds iptables rules to the ruleset, all I have to do was this:

  • use an ip and ipv6 table instead of inet
  • name all chains exactly as in iptables: INPUT, OUTPUT & FORWARD
