apim start failed in icp (ibm cloud private)

[Alex-BlackMamba]

I just want to move the apim into icp, it seems that the container starts failed as below:

I'm using the image: ibmcom/apiconnect:manager-v5.0.6.0

[yarramsetti]

Getting the same error. Any solution to this?

[mm54760]

I'm also getting this. Could the image be corrupted? when I ran the image in interactive mode the dmidecode isn't installed but there is an empty directory.

[hasegawatmy]

I got this, too. I continue procedure 3times. And I install dmidecode, but I couldn't run.

@Alex-BlackMamba We did some digging into this and understand the issue. We will be working on a fix this week.

@Alex-BlackMamba
The problem is that docker has moved forward a lot since the module was pushed to dockerhub and some of these changes are causing the get-os-info.sh script to jump down the wrong path.

The quick work around is to do the following using the attached file:

Make sure you have run docker-compose down to ensure all containers are down and removed.
Create a new directory locally called apim
Copy the attached gz file into this directory and unzip it.
Ensure the file is executable by all chmod a+x get-os-info.sh.
Create a dockerfile in the directory and populate with

FROM ibmcom/apiconnect:manager-v5.0.6.0
ADD --chown=root:root get-os-info.sh /opt/ibm/informix/apim/get-os-info.sh

Run docker build -t manager-v5.0.6.0-ifix.

Once complete update docker-compose.yaml and change the apim image to manager-v5.0.6.0-ifix:latest.

docker-compose up to bring it all up.

get-os-info.sh.gz

seems still not fixed

I recreated the api connect manager image using you provided get-os-info.sh file.
Then push the new image to ICP and run the deployment.
Container seems running, but the api connect doesn't work.
