python 3.x - Loading the pre-trained model of torch and sentence_transformers when running in a docker container failing

Question

I am getting below error while loading the pre-trained model of torch and sentence_transformers("distilbert-base-nli-stsb-mean-tokens") when trying to run in a docker container.

Error: Invalid value for '-A' / '--app': 
 Unable to load celery application.
 While trying to load the module app.celery the following error occurred:

 PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/nonexistent'

Here it is saying permission denied error while creating the folder. But I have tried providing USER root in the Dockerfile. Stuck with this issue for long time. Please anyone help me here.
