Description of the bug

I'm trying to run the pipeline with Docker on an Azure VM. The run fails with an error message indicating that the ubuntu:20.04 container cannot be run. The same container works fine on AWS and other Azure environments.

Error message:

Command used and terminal output

Hi! I am getting the same error.
Did you solve it?

Hi could you provide more info please? Which version of nf-core/rnaseq are you using? What is the base image for your Azure VM?

I'm unfamiliar with Nextflow version 23.2.1-BETA1_2fe9694, could you please clarify which version of Nextflow you are using from the releases page?
