I am struggling with making an old JavaFX (+ JFoenix) school project work inside a Docker container.
I made a multi-project Gradle build config (commons, server and client) that runs well with Java 21 directly on my computer (Manjaro 6.6.32 64-bits / Wayland / Intel Core 11th Gen i3-1115G4 x4), but not with the following Dockerfile for the client app :

FROM gradle:8-jdk21-alpine AS builder
WORKDIR /home/gradle
COPY --chown=gradle:gradle . .
RUN gradle build

FROM eclipse-temurin:21-jre-alpine
WORKDIR /usr/app
COPY --from=builder /home/gradle/client/build/distributions/client.tar .
RUN tar -xf client.tar
ENTRYPOINT ["./client/bin/client"]

With the command docker build -t jfxclient . && docker run --rm -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:ro jfxclient.

I have already solved some issues by adding the following line in the last stage :

RUN apk add --no-cache libx11 libxxf86vm mesa-gl mesa-dri-gallium

And running sudo xhost +local:docker before to start the container.

Now, I am facing the following error at startup, and I have not been able to solve it:

MESA: error: Failed to query drm device.
glx: failed to create dri3 screen

Changing the entrypoint to ENTRYPOINT ["/bin/sh"], I obtained the file /usr/app/hs_err_pid7.log, but it is pretty long, 1181 lines. Here are what I consider to be the most interesting parts:

I have installed mesa-demos package and been successful to run glxgears inside the container. It still prints the following message though:

glx: failed to create dri3 screen

Here is some info provided by glxinfo:

eglinfo has more info:

I have tried many suggestions found on SO or elsewhere, but none did work so far.

I am now completely lost here. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  1. Chosen as BEST ANSWER

    I resumed it just today and I got it.

    From within the container with entrypoint /bin/sh, I modified the client/bin/client shell script to add the -Dprism.order=sw -Dprism.verbose=true options in DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS="", as recommended by user jewelsea. (Actually, I could have just executed export JAVA_OPTS="-Dprism.order=sw" before running the script to achieve the same result, so that's what I have done after.)

    The first line when running the script changed from Prism pipeline init order: es2 sw to [...]: sw.

    A new error log told me about ld-linux-x86-64.so.2: No such file or directory and java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no glassgtk3 in java.library.path. I have also installed libc6-compat to fix it.

    Then, finally, the app launched successfully. So far so good! Thanks to @jewelsea for the tip to finish this.

    Final Dockerfile, run command and Docker Compose

    FROM gradle:8-jdk21-alpine AS builder
    WORKDIR /home/gradle
    COPY --chown=gradle:gradle . .
    RUN gradle build
    
    FROM eclipse-temurin:21-jre-alpine AS client
    WORKDIR /usr/app
    RUN apk upgrade --no-cache && apk add --no-cache gtk+3.0 libc6-compat libcanberra-gtk3
    # no more mesa packages required with sw, but I added libcanberra to fix a warning
    COPY --from=builder /home/gradle/client/build/distributions/client.tar .
    RUN tar -xf client.tar
    ENV JAVA_OPTS="-Dprism.order=sw"
    ENTRYPOINT ["./client/bin/client"]
    
    sudo xhost +local:docker
    # Reverse command: sudo xhost -local:docker
    docker build -t client . && docker run -it --rm -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY -e NO_AT_BRIDGE=1 -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:ro --net=host --name client client
    # $DISPLAY contains `:0`
    
    services:
      client:
        build:
          target: client
        environment:
          DISPLAY: $DISPLAY
          NO_AT_BRIDGE: 1  # to ignore some warnings raised by GTK
        network_mode: host
        ports: []
        volumes:
          - /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:ro
    

    Other clues I found while doing research, but that did not fixed anything or not even tried:

    • Using JVM options -Djdk.gtk.version=3 -Djdk.gtk.verbose=true
    • Adding env variable -e XAUTHORITY=/tmp/.docker.xauth
    • Using volumes -v /dev/dri:/dev/dri:ro or -v /tmp/.docker.xauth:/tmp/.docker.xauth:ro
    • Using --platform linux/x86_64 (not tried)
    • Monocle (not tried)

    Running the Docker Container:

    1. Build the Docker Image:
      docker build -t jfxclient .
      
    2. Allow Docker to Access Your Display:
      xhost +local:docker
      
    3. Run the Docker Container:
      docker run --rm -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix:ro jfxclient
