Unable to change working directory of Deepstream Docker Image

Setup Info:

Issue Type: question

Hello everyone,
I am running into a problem building a Deepstream application on top of an NVIDIA base image.

FROM nvcr.io/nvidia/deepstream-l4t:6.1-samples

RUN apt update -y
RUN apt upgrade -y

# Clone the Deepstream Python Apps Repo into <deepstream>/sources
WORKDIR /opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream/sources
RUN git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA-AI-IOT/deepstream_python_apps.git

# Download and install the Deepstream Python Bindings
RUN mkdir /opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream/sources/deepstream_python_apps/bindings/build
WORKDIR /opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream/sources/deepstream_python_apps/bindings/build
RUN curl -O -L https://github.com/NVIDIA-AI-IOT/deepstream_python_apps/releases/download/v1.1.3/pyds-1.1.3-py3-none-linux_aarch64.whl
RUN pip install ./pyds-1.1.3-py3-none-linux_aarch64.whl

# Set env
ENV USE_NEW_NVSTREAMMUX=yes

# Copy the project folder
COPY . /app

WORKDIR /app

CMD ["bash", "start.sh"]

start.sh is located within /app. However the workdir for the CMD command will always default to /opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream.
Can you tell me what I’m doing wrong?

The WORKDIR instruction sets the working directory for any RUN , CMD , ENTRYPOINT , COPY and ADD instructions that follow it in the Dockerfile

Did you set -w /opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream in your docker command?

Yes, I keep the run command in a seperate shell file and forgot about it.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
