Not able to Start Document AI Container

Chintan Gotecha 20

I have opted for the paid tier of Azure Document AI. I intend to use "layout" model for my testing.The requirement is to consume the services via docker container, hence, I pulled latest controller use the command:

docker pull mcr.microsoft.com/azure-cognitive-services/form-recognizer/layout

Now, that I have a subscription key and URL, I use the below command to run the container

docker run mcr.microsoft.com/azure-cognitive-services/form-recognizer/layout eula=accept Billing={"https://mypriateinfo.cognitiveservices.azure.com/"} ApiKey={"4545kjdfsomekeyiuiu"}

After running the above command, I get below error

Hi @Chintan Gotecha ,

Thank you for reaching out to the Azure community forum!

I understand that you were trying to consume the Azure Document Intelligence AI services via the docker container and were also able to successfully "Pull" the form-recognizer layout controller with the "docker pull" command. However, the command was failing while you were trying to run the docker container. I will be happy to assist you regarding this.

I quickly tried to repro at my end and was able to successfully start the application by running the docker container command.

Please find below repro screenshots for your reference:

Kindly try below debugging things at your end:

As a first step, please check if you have the necessary permissions and privileges to use Azure Cognitive Services and Docker containers.

The error message received, while trying to run the docker container indicates that the container failed to start due to a function not being implemented. This could happen due to various reasons, such as incorrect configuration, missing any dependencies etc.

Having a closer look at the endpoint and key given in the 2nd command, my observation is that they both contain curly braces around them. Kindly remove the braces and re-run the docker container to check if the container runs successfully.

Please also refer the below relevant Azure documentation links for Azure Cognitive Services and Docker containers to explore further:

Install and run Docker containers for Document Intelligence (formerly Form Recognizer) - Azure AI services | Microsoft Learn

Use Azure AI containers on-premises - Azure AI services | Microsoft Learn

Quickstart - Deploy Docker container to container instance - PowerShell - Azure Container Instances | Microsoft Learn

Kindly try above suggestions at your end and hopefully the error will be resolved.

I hope this information helps!

Thanks for Quick Reply.

I rechecked every step mentioned in the article, you are right, curl brackets are not needed, I removed them and re-tried, still I am getting the same error.

Also, I tried is via creating a docker-compose.yml (please find attached screenshot), even with this one, I am getting the same error.

Also attaching screenshot of the output window.

Output:

Also, please note that, when I consume the service via python client with same api key and url, everything works smoothly.

Hi @Chintan Gotecha ,

Thanks for providing more information.

As everything works perfectly with Python, I suggest you compare and check the Dockerfile for the Python runtime with the Dockerfile for other programming language. It can be a helpful troubleshooting step, especially as you were experiencing issues when using a different runtime.

Here I assume that Azure Functions extension and Azure functions core tools were being used by the Python runtime and so it is working as expected. The same needs to be checked for other runtime Dockerfile as well.

Please check if your python dockerfile have below lines inside, related to azure-functions:

FROM mcr.microsoft.com/azure-functions/python:4-python3.9 ENV AzureWebJobsScriptRoot=/home/site/wwwroot \ AzureFunctionsJobHost__Logging__Console__IsEnabled=true

For reference: "Function not implemented" when trying to access a file within a container. Works fine from Windows. Need to restart Docker to fix. · Issue #5955 · docker/for-win (github.com)
