## Switching from Dockerfile deployments
|

|

If an application was previously deployed via Dockerfile, the following commands should be run before a buildpack deploy will succeed:

|
||||
```shell
|
||||
dokku config:unset --no-restart node-js-app DOKKU_DOCKERFILE_CMD DOKKU_DOCKERFILE_ENTRYPOINT DOKKU_PROXY_PORT_MAP

## Specifying a custom buildpack
|
||||
|
||||
In certain cases you may want to specify a custom buildpack. While Dokku uses herokuish to support all the [official heroku buildpacks](https://github.com/gliderlabs/herokuish#buildpacks), it is possible that the buildpack detection does not work well for your application. As well, you may wish to use a custom buildpack to handle specific application logic.

## Customizing the run command

By default no arguments are passed to `docker run` when deploying the container and the `CMD` or `ENTRYPOINT` defined in the `Dockerfile` are executed. You can take advantage of docker ability of overriding the `CMD` or passing parameters to your `ENTRYPOINT` setting `$DOKKU_DOCKERFILE_START_CMD`. Let's say for example you are deploying a base nodejs image, with the following `ENTRYPOINT`:
