# My container-based app fails to deploy without logs or error codes.

If your app using Docker images fails to deploy and the logs are vague or missing, for example you see `ERR: container "my-app" in pod "my-app-123456-1234" is waiting to start: trying and failing to pull image` with no deploy logs, follow these steps to troubleshoot:

- Make sure the app is working locally, using the same Docker setup.
- Make sure the Dockerfile is built for Linux AMD64 (`--platform=linux/amd64`).
- Make sure you are not using a duplicate tag, such as `latest` or `debug`. Duplicate tags can create conflicts with a cached version when pulling the image. Instead, use a unique tag such as `vX.Y.Z` or `latestv1`.
- Update the digest if you’re using one.
- Build the Dockerfile without caching; for example, by running the command `docker build --no-cache -t $tag_name`.
- Make sure all commands in your Dockerfile are compatible with the Linux build. For example, the `COPY` command may work locally on an Apple M3 Chip machine, but not Linux AMD64.
- Make sure you set up CMD or ENTRYPOINT properly, ensuring all files have the proper permissions.
