# How can I get the .NET SDK to work on Docker?

Instructions to get Apryse .NET SDK to work with Docker.

The project needs to know where the shared lib is located. You can achieve this by any one of the following 2 approaches.

Approach 1:

You will add the following to the Docker file: ​ `COPY libPDFNet* /usr/lib/ RUN rm /usr/lib/libPDFNetC.so;\ mv /usr/lib/libPDFNetC.so.6.10.0 /usr/lib/libPDFNetC.so`

Adding the above commands will resolve the following two issues:

1. Apryse's native library needs to be placed directly in `"/usr/lib/"` folder
2. Docker does not like how we symlink the so files, so removing the `symlink` is required

Approach 2:

1. Manually remove the symlink `libPDFNetC.so` and rename the versioned so to `libPDFNetC.so`
2. Edit the `.csproj` file to directly point to `libPDFNetC.so`

```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.apryse.com/core/get-started/faq/dotnetcore-to-work-on-docker.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
