gunicorn.errors.HaltServer: <HaltServer 'Worker failed to boot.' 3> for fastapi

I am trying to run fastapi in docker but i am getting error. I am using docker run -d -p 8080:8080 onetest to run the container. I was unable to rectify this error. When i run the application without docker locally i am not facing any problem. I am having this problem with running fastapi with docker.

gunicorn_config.py

bind = "0.0.0.0:8080"
workers = 4
timeout = 300
worker_class = "uvicorn.workers.UvicornWorker"

Dockerfile

FROM tiangolo/uvicorn-gunicorn:python3.8-slim
COPY ./requirements.txt ./requirements.txt
RUN pip3 install --no-cache-dir --upgrade -r ./requirements.txt
COPY ./app ./app
COPY ./inputs ./inputs
COPY ./model ./model
COPY ./tests ./tests
COPY ./gunicorn.config.py ./gunicorn.config.py
COPY ./Procfile ./Procfile
COPY ./entrypoint.sh ./entrypoint.sh

RUN chmod +x entrypoint.sh
CMD [ "./entrypoint.sh" ]

entrypoint.sh

#!/bin/bash
gunicorn --worker-tmp-dir /dev/shm --config gunicorn.config.py app.main:app
