Why is this error occuring only when building the docker image

Question

I have updated my Laravel app from 6 to 7 and then 8 without problems. However, when I try to build an my docker image, it fails at the composer install --no-dev -o command. If I run the same command in my terminal, there is no error. The error is

In Request.php line 335:
                                                                               
  Argument 1 passed to Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request::create() mus  
  t be of the type string, null given, called in /app/vendor/laravel/framewor  
  k/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Bootstrap/SetRequestForConsole.php on line 32

and the command used to build the image is @docker build $(DOCKER_BUILD_ARG) -t $(IMAGE_TAG) -f $(DOCKERFILE) . It seems like it is a problem with a laravel framework file. I Googled this error but have not found any solution. I tried to run composer dump autoload, php artisan cache:clar and php artisan config:clear, none of these fixed my issue.

My dockerfile looks like this:

FROM armcanada/php7-mssql:latest

# Copy files
ADD . /app/
ADD php.ini /etc/php.ini
ADD arm-http.conf /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/arm-http.conf

# Install app dependencies
RUN composer install --no-dev -o

# Fix permissions
RUN chmod -R 777 ./storage
RUN chmod -R 777 ./bootstrap/cache

# Cache route & views
RUN php artisan route:cache
RUN php artisan view:cache

CMD ["start_httpd"]

and my composer.json:

}

Not sure why I am getting downvoted for this. I Also tried to remove the vendor folder and the composer.lock file, I am getting the same error. — naghal

I managed to solve it by editing the app/config.php file. The error was that the url key was null so I added a default value to the env() function:

'url' => env('APP_URL', 'default'),

This worked for me. Adding the APP_URL on the .env would have worked too (my local .env file didn't have that variable).
