I am trying to configure nginx as proxy server but getting an error while composing docker file

Question

I am trying to configure nginx as proxy server but getting an error. I have created below file as part of my work.

DockerFile

 FROM nginx:1.10.1-alpine
 RUN rm /etc/nginx/conf.d/*
 COPY proxy.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d/

Proxy.config

server {

listen 80;

location / {
    proxy_pass http://app;

}
}

docker-compose.yml

---

version: '2'

services:
app:
    build: app

proxy:
    build: proxy
    ports:
      - "80:80"

When I build docker-compose file I am getting following error:

Puja:Docker pujadudhat$ docker-compose build
Building app
Step 1/2 : FROM nginx:1.10.1-alpine

Step 3/3 : COPY proxy.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d/
ERROR: Service 'proxy' failed to build: lstat proxy.conf: no such file or directory

I am getting this error "Service 'proxy' failed to build: lstat proxy.conf: no such file or directory. Can anyone help me to solve? Thank you.n

Looks like you are missing the proxy.conf in your project where you build the docker container. It looks like you have it named Proxy.conf and it should be named proxy.conf .
