How can I solve COPY failed: file not found in build context or excluded in Azure Pipeline?

I got stuck very interesting issue with azure pipeline. The issue is "Forbidden path outside the build context".If you have an add line in the Dockerfile which points to another directory, the build of the image fails with the message "Forbidden path".How can I solve this?

I was recently attempting to Dockerize a C# project, so I added a docker folder to the project and created a simple Dockerfile to get started like below:

How can I solve "COPY failed: Forbidden path outside the build context"? I want to use Dockerfile in DockerFiles Directory.

Based on the previous answer if Dockerfile happens to be inside for. ex the Web Api project or similar(what usually Visual Studio generated) just uncheck the 'Use Default Build Context' and leave the input empty. Worked for me.

In my case Build Context, uncheck the Use Default Build Context and set the Project Solution folder. Refer image build context set

You can try to add buildContext parameter in the Docker task.

buildContext: Path to the build context

Here is a case you can refer to.
