How to add Python in ibmcom/websphere-traditional container

[unitopia]

We are trying to add/install Python in ibmcom/websphere-traditional container, but it pops-up the Permisson denied. We also tried to use owned Dockerfile

Set the base image to websphere-traditional

FROM docker.io/ibmcom/websphere-traditional

Expose the default port

EXPOSE 9043/TCP 9080/TCP 443/TCP 80/TCP 389/TCP 5060/TCP 5061/TCP

Update the repository sources list

RUN apt-get update

################## BEGIN INSTALLATION ######################

Install python3

RUN apt-get install python3-all

Update the repository sources list once more

RUN apt-get update ##################### INSTALLATION END #####################

the Permission denied occurred at # Update the repository sources list RUN apt-get update

How do we workaround this issue? Thanks.

You need to set the user back to root in the Dockerfile before you try and install new packages:

USER root

Thanks David. This works.
