Are you sure it fails? Maybe you only have to restart apache?

I use this to buil a new image in a dockerfile the container is still not starting apache service at that point no?

FROM php:7.4-apache

ADD https://github.com/mlocati/docker-php-extension-installer/releases/latest/download/install-php-extensions /usr/local/bin/

RUN \
    # Set -ex and chain commands using ';' instead of '&&'.
    set -ex; \
    \
    apt-get update; \
    \
    chmod +x /usr/local/bin/install-php-extensions; \
    \
    install-php-extensions mysqli 

1. even so, i get into docker container and run php -m after starting... no module from the list
2. restarted apach service... still nothing
3. inside the container, tried to manually fire install-php-extensions mysqli on an extension, restarted apache, and there it works and installes mysqli.

1. I created a Dockerfile like the one you provided:

   FROM php:7.4-apache
   
   ADD https://github.com/mlocati/docker-php-extension-installer/releases/latest/download/install-php-extensions /usr/local/bin/
   
   RUN \
       # Set -ex and chain commands using ';' instead of '&&'.
       set -ex; \
       \
       apt-get update; \
       \
       chmod +x /usr/local/bin/install-php-extensions; \
       \
       install-php-extensions mysqli

2. I created an image with: docker build -t test:latest .
3. I created a directory on my PC with an index.php file containing <?php phpinfo();
4. I launched it with

   docker run --rm -p 8000:80 -v path/to/the/test/directory:/var/www/html test:latest

5. I browsed to http://localhost:8000, and here's what I see:
   

So, everything seems to work just fine...

Thank you for your help.
After knowing it works for you, i tried now with --force-rm --no-cache and it works.

I think that something was messing things up in the cache maybe.
