Doppler masks underlying boot errors

Need Help
1

Currently I use porter to run our docker containers. If I made a run command of:

python ...

When the binary doesn’t exist I see the following error:

Error: failed to start container “job”: Error response from daemon: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:367: starting container process caused: exec: “python”: executable file not found in $PATH: unknown

This is because I should be using python3. Now if I wrap this in doppler as follows:

doppler run -- python ...

I see no error any longer (literally nothing, simply fails), making it really challenging to see what went wrong.

If I add --debug to the run command I see the following:

Doppler Error: fork/exec : no such file or directory

This at least points out the issue is the python is the wrong binary, but definitely not an ideal error. FWIW we use the ubuntu20.04 docker base image (nothing fancy).

How can doppler spit out better error messages when the underlying run command fails so we can effectively troubleshoot.

We’ve just released Doppler CLI v3.26.1 to address this issue. doppler run will now print the exit error if due to an inability to exec your provided command. Let me know if that adequately addresses your issue.

Perfect thanks. Here’s the new error from doppler:

Doppler Error: exec: "python": executable file not found in $PATH
