Description

I follow the tutorial step by step and so far so good until it come to create webapp:

root@Dell-Inspiron-3543:~/snap# docker build -t kflee2000/catnip . error checking context: 'no permission to read from '/root/snap/Dockerfile''.

The file Dockerfile: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233 Jul 13 21:45 Dockerfile so just wonder where is the permission refer to. Help appreciated.

Research direction
Investigate the Docker build context and file permissions. Ensure the Dockerfile is in the current directory and not in /root/snap/. The error suggests the build context is /root/snap/, but the Dockerfile might be elsewhere. Consider running `docker build t kflee2000/catnip .` from the directory containing the Dockerfile. Also check if the Docker daemon has access to that path.
