devpod reset or fresh start works, but rebuild fails

[ysaakpr]

• Devpod Version: v0.5.18
• Operating System: mac
• ARCH of the OS: ARM64
• AWS Provider - Ec2 - ubuntu ami

I am using devpod with docker compose for development setup. i am using preInstall hooks to initialize the env variables and creates .env file in the directory where the docker compose file and devcontainer.json stays, which is in the folder named .devcontainer in the root of git repo. The docker compose also have reference to the same .env file in the services which it needed with env_file keyword.

I am able to do a fresh setup with the devpod, it works and starts the vscode editor, successfully. Also if i have to reset, it does it well. The issue is while i want to rebuild. I get debug logs saying the expected env variables are not set, and because of that the containers are failing.

The .env file is in the same place as the docker-composeand the devcontainer.json

My devcontainer.json:
