Error while compiling Apps in Run-ALPipeline

[HinnackX1]

Hi,

we are running the Run-ALPipeline command on an agent on a virtual machine via Azure DevOps Build Pipelines. When compiling the apps, we get the following error message: ERROR Exception calling "DownloadFile" with "2" argument(s): "Unable to connect to the remote server"

Scripts used to create container and cause the issue

Additional context

• Only on the virtual machine
• local Agents are still working
• navcontainerhelper is updated to 6.0.15
• executed docker system prune on virtual machine

Not sure what the cause of this is, but since you say that it works on local agents and not on a VM, there probably isn't anything with the script I would delete and recreate the VM (I would use aka.ms/getbuildagent) and see if the problem resolves itself.
