Description of problem:
When building from custom Docker file based on completely empty base-image, command using second-form of RUN fails with invalid environment '' error.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
# docker version
Client version: 1.1.2
Client API version: 1.14
Go version (client): go1.2.2
Git commit (client): 8aa40e8/1.1.2
OS/Arch (client): linux/amd64
Server version: 1.1.2

Go version (server): go1.2.2
Git commit (server): 8aa40e8/1.1.2
# rpm -q docker

How reproducible:
Slightly complex

Steps to Reproduce:
1. # mkdir empty && cd empty
2. # tar c . | docker import - empty_base_image
3. # docker -D build --no-cache --rm -t test:test .

Created attachment 926498 [details]
Context directory + files needed to reproduce

Included busybox executable in tarball attachment came from http://www.busybox.net/downloads/binaries/latest/busybox-x86_64

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2014-09-15 15:49:47 UTC

Could this be a problem with pathing?  If you fully path all busybox in your example does it work?

Comment 4 Chris Evich 2014-09-16 17:38:35 UTC

It's possible, strangely I've seen this problem come and go but have lost track of when/where.  We do set up PATH as part of the dockerfile, but I'll double check and give what you suggest a try...

...nope, of course now it's working perfectly for me w/o changing anything :(

I think for now, let's just lower the severity/priority of this BZ until/if we can find a way to more reliably reproduce it in the next few weeks.  It's quite possible the underlying problem has been fixed and we can just close.

Comment 5 Daniel Walsh 2014-10-24 20:14:05 UTC

Its been awhile I am going to close.

Comment 6 Chris Evich 2014-10-24 20:18:20 UTC

Oh thanks, I forgot about this one.  It was happening with a lot more frequency when I opened this, now for sure it's not.  I have seen it happen only once or twice since 1.2.0, but still no clue how to repro. it reliably.  It's probably just a fluke.
