Docker build for new 1903 images #3023

Closed ob1dev closed 5 years ago

ob1dev commented 5 years ago

Same as https://github.com/appveyor/ci/issues/2676

Add support for Windows Service Core version 1903 and Windows Nano Server 1903:

IlyaFinkelshteyn commented 5 years ago

@olegburov thank you for bringing this up. Do I understand correctly that if we add those new 1903 images alongside with others to our Windows Server 2019 VM image, it will solve the problem?

ob1dev commented 5 years ago

@IlyaFinkelshteyn it depends on Windows Server version that your VM image is based on.

With Windows Containers the host OS must match the Windows Container image. For example, to run a container based on the mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:1903 or mcr.microsoft.com/windows/nanoserver:1903, the host OS msut be Windows Server 2019 v1903 (SAC).

See here for details: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/windowscontainers/deploy-containers/version-compatibility

i came across this looking to do the same. With the current 2019 server image I am able to build 1809 with process isolation and 1803 with hyperv isolation -- but also looking to do 1903 as well.

IlyaFinkelshteyn commented 5 years ago

Initially I was under impression that it will work in hyperv isolation mode on our Window Server 2019 image (which is based on Long-Term Servicing Channel release of Windows Server 2019). Apparently it is not supported.

We have a private build cloud solution. Now we are re-branding it to BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud) and adding a lot of automation to make it easy to set up

We prepared a template for you to build your own Azure image based on Windows Server version 1903 with Containers.

If you are interested, please let us know and we will enable this feature for your AppVeyor accounts.

To setup, please follow those instructions but instead of calling .\connect-to-azure.ps1, call .\connect-to-azure.ps1 -appveyor_url https://ci.appveyor.com -image_description "Windows Server 2019 version 1903" -packer_template .\minimal-windows-server-1903.json.

As a result new (private) image called Windows Server 2019 version 1903 will be available to your AppVeyor projects and you can add it to your build matrix.

@olegburov Both mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:1903 and mcr.microsoft.com/windows/nanoserver:1903 has been installed on Visual Studio 2019 image which now has Docker/LCOW/WSL. Windows Server 2019 is not going to be updated going forward. Please switch to Visual Studio 2019.
