It looks like tezos-client does not understand the "uri" format file:/[...]. It's an annoying bug which is worth reporting at https://gitlab.com/tezos/tezos/issues .
I don't know if docker keeps the files it puts in /tmp/ or if it erases them immediately. If files stay for a bit, now that the son file is in the container, alphabet.sh client activate account peach with /tmp/tz1....json should work...

I am also getting the same error when I run "./alphanet.sh client activate account user_1 with tz1xxx...xxxxxubq.json" When json file is in the same folder of alphanet.sh script. Error thrown was: Erroneous command line argument 5 (tz1xxx...xxxxxubq.json). File doesn't exist: 'tz1xxx...xxxxxubq.json' How did you solve it?– user_184Mar 31, 2019 at 15:15

Okay so this is my first stackexchange answer ever and I'm surprised I was the one to figure this out but here's what I did after several hours.
The problem is that docker cannot access the place in your filesystem that has your temp wallet in it. So I found this article detailing how to mount a volume to a docker container while it is running: https://jpetazzo.github.io/2015/01/13/docker-mount-dynamic-volumes/
You need to find the name of your tezos node with
docker ps
(1) Mine is called
alphanet_node_1
(2) Next you need to find the location of your .json file. Mine is in
~/Downloads/tezos_docker/tz1....json
(3) Next enter your container with >./alphanet.sh shell then create the directory in the container you want to contain the .json file. Mine is
/home/tezos/tezos_docker
Use those three values for the variables at the top of the script in the linked article at the top:
CONTAINER=(1) HOSTPATH= (2) CONTPATH= (3)
Also make sure you download the nsenter script from the linked article using
docker run --rm -v /usr/local/bin:/target jpetazzo/nsenter
Finally I had to change some of the syntax at the bottom of the script in the article, deleting the -- in the bottom rows and changing --mode to -m for mknod. Hope this helps!
