there is error:

Hi,
liberica-openjdk-alpine is a glibc-based image, therefore, every time you're adding smth using apk you have to run /usr/glibc/sbin/ldconfig manually.

Please try adding the following lines into your Dockerfile:

RUN apk add --no-cache fontconfig ttf-dejavu && /usr/glibc/sbin/ldconfig

[den1ska]

When adding native Alpine Linux packages using apk it's important to keep in mind that Liberica JDK within this image is glibc-based. Thus it's required to run /usr/glibc/sbin/ldconfig manually after adding any system packages. This includes adding apk packages in Dockerfile directly. For example:

RUN apk add --no-cache fontconfig ttf-dejavu && /usr/glibc/sbin/ldconfig

@kpy3no hi! have you found how to fix it with alpine image?

[varpa89]

@den1ska could you please help? what is the reason of
