I'm trying to set up a docker container on Debian 9.8, but I keep getting the following error when I run docker-compose up -d: 

W: Failed to fetch http://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/jessie-updates/main/binary-amd64/Packages  404  Not Found

Which then causes the process to be cut short.

I have the following Dockerfile (shortened for readability) with 2 calls to apt-get update that I have modified with suggestions from these pages to no avail:

RUN echo "deb [check-valid-until=no] http://archive.debian.org/debian jessie main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/jessie.list
RUN sed -i '/deb http:\/\/deb.debian.org\/debian jessie-updates main/d' /etc/apt/sources.list
RUN apt-get -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false update
RUN sed -i '/jessie-updates/d' /etc/apt/sources.list
RUN apt-get update

I also removed any references I could find to jessie in /etc/apt/sources/list. What am I missing?

EDIT I didn't realise there were multipls dockerfiles in the project, so I edited all of them one by one. That said, is there a way of centralizing the process?

    Try removing the `apt-get update` statements from dockerfile and see what is happening. – demouser123 Apr 04 '19 at 10:35
  • @demouser123 ok so there are in fact 10 dockerfiles across the app and each one calls apt-get update at some point, is there a way to centralise a solution? – Jessica Chambers Apr 04 '19 at 10:41
  • It's not clear which line is throwing the error. Can you simplify and isolate your problem down to a [mcve]? – BMitch Apr 04 '19 at 12:02

    The edited question is very different from the original question. It would probably be best to close this as a duplicate and open a new question with enough detail on your project layout and multiple Dockerfiles that advice can be given. Creating your own base image is a common practice but difficult to advise without seeing each Dockerfile. – BMitch Apr 04 '19 at 15:09

I ran the following without issue:

$ cat df.jessie-updates
FROM python:3.5.2
RUN sed -i '/jessie-updates/d' /etc/apt/sources.list
RUN apt-get update \
 && apt-get install -y git

$ DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0 docker build -f df.jessie-updates -t test-jessie-updates .

This is based off of your second link which you described as not working. If you have a MCVE including a minimal and complete dockerfile, and the full output from running a build, that may help us debug further.

Any one who might be facing this issue jessie-update fails or jessie-backports fail, this solution worked for me.

 RUN echo 'deb http://archive.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/jessie-backports.list
 RUN sed -i '/jessie-updates/d' /etc/apt/sources.list
 RUN apt-get -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false update`
