Docker Build Failure During fpocket Installation – Molfile Plugin Compilation Error #174
Description
While setting up the fpocket environment using Docker, the build process fails during the compilation of the molfile_plugin from the Discngine GitHub repository. The error occurs at the step:
git clone https://github.com/Discngine/molfile_plugin.git &&
cd molfile_plugin/vmd/plugins &&
make LINUXAMD64 &&
mkdir -p $PLUGINDIR &&
cp -r compile/LINUXAMD64/molfile/* $PLUGINDIR
The build exits with:
ERROR: failed to build: failed to solve: process ... did not complete successfully: exit code: 2
This suggests a failure in the make LINUXAMD64 step, possibly due to missing dependencies, incorrect environment variables, or compatibility issues with the Docker base image.
Please advise on:
Required dependencies or base image adjustments
Verified steps to compile molfile_plugin inside Docker
Any known issues with the plugin or its compatibility with fpocket
Right now we have manually copied the required headers but that's not the ideal way. Looking forward a in-build solution to it.
