How to install CUPS software in httpd server

I have a Docker image of a server whose base image is httpd:2.4, whose base image is Alpine Linux. I need to install CUPS software for configuring printers in the server. How do I proceed with installation?



I have included the apk update and apk upgrade commands in Dockerfile which updates Alpine Linux and trying to install CUPS using apk add cups which is mentioned in https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Printer_Setup



But it is giving me the below error:



OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:348: starting container process caused "exec: "apk": executable file not found in $PATH": unknown



Can someone please tell me where am I going wrong in this and point me in right direction. Why is it not able to find the apk command which is from the base image - Alpine Linux?



Here's the Dockerfile:



FROM httpd:2.4
RUN ["apk", "update"]
RUN ["apk", "upgrade"]
RUN ["apk", "add", "cups"]
