I just ran into your Dockerfile, and I see one problem : you should have only one CMD instruction, because only the last CMD instruction will be ran.

There can only be one CMD instruction in a Dockerfile. If you list more than one CMD then only the last CMD will take effect
The docker documentation

So, instead of having multiples CMD, do all the commands in RUN instructions. And to avoid having to much layers, chain your commands with &&. So you'll have RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y apt-utils && apt-get install -y git python-pip wget, RUN git clone -b development https://github.com/PeARSearch/PeARS.git && cd PeARS, and so on.

Hoping it will help!
