Be sure to update your docker images. Older versions did have problems locating contract files.

See this post for how to use the docker volume command to set up a mapping between the docker and host filesystems. It's one of several possible options for making the jump between the two. The documentation is being updated. Its explanations for working with the docker environment are definitely inadequate.

Note the eosio.cdt toolchain no longer generates .wast files at all. If you wish a wast file, you'll need to run the converter on the wasm file yourself.

To anyone encountering this with the latest version, try to use an absolute path instead (e.g. /bla/bla, not ./bla/bla).
