Docker container - "Docker run" append bash command

Question

I´m executing following command:

sudo docker run IMAGE bash ~/commands.sh

where IMAGE is my docker image and commands.sh a script inside the container.

When starting the container with "docker run", I want to execute the script. But it doesn´t work. I get the following error-status:

Exited (127) Less than a second ago

This error-status means, it doesn´t know the command. Can you tell me where my mistake is?

Does your image actually contain bash? (Many Alpine-based images won't.) — David Maze

I would assume that your local bash (running on the host system) expands the ~ before it reaches the running docker container. Have you tried using an absolute path here?
