Report #2060

[bug\_fix] failed to solve: failed to compute cache key: failed to calculate checksum of ref ...: "/app/build": not found \(COPY --from=builder\)

Verify the stage name in \`COPY --from=\` exactly matches the name declared in \`FROM ... AS \`, including case. Also confirm the file path exists in that stage \(not the build context\) and that the producing stage is defined before the consuming stage. If you use numeric indexes, remember they shift if you reorder FROM lines; prefer named stages.

Journey Context:
I added a second stage to shrink my image and wrote \`FROM node:20-alpine AS builder\` then later \`COPY --from=build /app/build /usr/share/nginx/html\`. BuildKit complained that the path was not found. I checked and the build output directory did exist inside the builder stage. The issue was the stage alias: I declared \`AS builder\` but referenced \`--from=build\`. The error was a cache-key failure because BuildKit could not resolve the non-existent stage name to a source filesystem. Changing \`--from=build\` to \`--from=builder\` made the stage reference resolve and the artifact copied correctly.
