The challenge
As described, I want to accomplish the same goal with docker itself as I would with the help of docker-compose.
I want to get a deeper understanding of docker and enable the ability to work with docker on platforms, where docker-compose is not an option.
What I do currently (with docker-compose)
1)
I use this docker-compose file:
---
version: '3'
services:
app:
build: .
proxy:
build: docker/proxy
ports:
- "80:80"
The "app" service starts a container which runs node on port 3002 (is exposed in the dockerfile)
The "proxy" service starts a container which runs an nginx with - among others - the following conf:
server {
listen 80;
server_name app;
location / {
proxy_pass http://app:3002;
}
}
2)
Then I add this to the /etc/hosts of my host pc:
127.0.0.1 app
3)
Now I run docker-compose up and vist http://app , which hits the node app.
Nice and simple, right?
Now I want to do the same only with docker.
What I've tried
1 using the same nginx configuration.
2 Starting the containers with a bash script
To accomplish this I
Created a network
Add the network to both containers
Setting up "app"-container hostname, network-alias and dns-search to "app" (because I hoped one of the options would help)
Here the script:
docker network create --driver bridge dockertest_nw
docker build -t dockertest_app .
docker create \
--name dockertest_app_con \
--network dockertest_nw \
--hostname app \
--network-alias=app \
--dns-search=app \
dockertest_app
docker build -t dockertest_proxy ./docker/proxy/
docker create \
--name dockertest_proxy_con \
--network dockertest_nw \
--hostname proxy \
--network-alias=proxy \
--dns-search=proxy \
-p 80:80 \
dockertest_proxy
docker start dockertest_proxy_con
docker start dockertest_app_con
Unfortunately, this doesn't work.
I also know there is a dns service from docker which docker-compose somehow uses and I should also use it on some way?
Could any one give some suggestions?
Update:
Just the info I got the following logs from the nginx container, which i would say shows the nginx doesn't can resolve "app" :
172.18.0.1 - - [13/Apr/2017:14:49:06 +0000] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 502 576 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_3) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/57.0.2987.133 Safari/537.36" "-"

You're tripping yourself up with all those options. All you really need is --network-alias to set the short form names app and proxy in your containers, which will be available in addition to the container names dockertest_app and dockertest_proxy.
docker network create --driver bridge dockertest_nw
docker build -t dockertest_app .
docker create \
--name dockertest_app \
--network dockertest_nw \
--network-alias=app \
dockertest_app
docker build -t dockertest_proxy ./docker/proxy/
docker create \
--name dockertest_proxy \
--network dockertest_nw \
--network-alias=proxy \
-p 80:80 \
dockertest_proxy
docker start dockertest_proxy
docker start dockertest_app

my server running gitlab in podman.
I want gitlab connecting of subdomain.
Test command
podman start gitlab-ce --VIRTUAL-HOST=test.example.com -p 80
how to virtualHost setting in podman?
According to the GitLab documentation, the container can be started with:
sudo podman run --detach \
--hostname gitlab.example.com \
--env GITLAB_OMNIBUS_CONFIG="external_url 'http://test.example.com/';" \
--publish 443:443 --publish 80:80 \
--name gitlab \
--restart always \
gitlab/gitlab-ce:latest
sudo is needed to bind port 80 and 443.
I would like to network with a child docker container from a parent docker container, with a docker-in-docker setup.
Let's say I'm trying to connect to a simple Apache httpd server. When I run the httpd container on my host machine, everything works fine:
asnyder:~$ docker run -d -p 8080:80 httpd:alpine
asnyder:~$ curl localhost:8080
<html><body><h1>It works!</h1></body></html>
But when I do the same from a docker-in-docker setup, I get a Connection refused error:
asnyder:~$ docker run -d --name mydind --privileged docker:dind
asnyder:~$ docker run -it --link mydind:docker docker:latest sh
/ # docker run -d -p 8080:80 httpd:alpine
/ # curl localhost:8080
curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 8080: Connection refused
I have tried a couple alterations without luck. Specifying the 0.0.0.0 interface:
asnyder:~$ docker run -d --name mydind --privileged docker:dind
asnyder:~$ docker run -it --link mydind:docker docker:latest sh
/ # docker run -d -p 0.0.0.0:8080:80 httpd:alpine
/ # curl 0.0.0.0:8080
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 0.0.0.0 port 8080: Connection refused
Using the host network:
asnyder:~$ docker run -d --name mydind --privileged docker:dind
asnyder:~$ docker run -it --link mydind:docker docker:latest sh
/ # docker run -d --network host httpd:alpine
/ # curl localhost:80
curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 80: Connection refused
Surprisingly, I was unable to find any existing articles on this. Does anyone here have some insight?
Thanks!
There are pros and cons for both DinD and bind mounting the Docker socket and there are certainly use cases for both. As an example, check out this set of blog posts, which does a good job of explaining one of the use cases.
Given your example docker-in-docker setup above, you can access Apache httpd server in one of two ways:
1) From inside the docker:dind container, it will be available on localhost:8080.
2) From inside the docker:latest container, where you were trying to access it originally, it will be available on whatever hostname is set for the docker:dind container. In this case, you used --name mydind, therefore curl mydind:8080 would give you the standard Apache <html><body><h1>It works!</h1></body></html>.
Hope it makes sense!
Building upon Yuriy's answer:
2) From inside the docker:latest container, [...] it will be available on whatever hostname is set for the docker:dind container. In this case, you used --name mydind, therefore curl mydind:8080 [...]
In the Gitlab CI config, you can address the DinD container by the name of its image (in addition to the name of its container, which is auto-generated):
Accessing the services
Let’s say that you need a Wordpress instance to test some API integration with your application.
You can then use for example the tutum/wordpress image in your .gitlab-ci.yml:
services:
- tutum/wordpress:latest
If you don’t specify a service alias, when the job is run, tutum/wordpress will be started and you will have access to it from your build container under two hostnames to choose from:
tutum-wordpress
tutum__wordpress
Using
service:
- docker:dind
will allow you to access that container as docker:8080:
script:
- docker run -d -p 8080:80 httpd:alpine
- curl docker:8080
Edit: If you'd prefer a more explicit host name, you can, as the documentation states, use an alias:
services:
- name: docker:dind
alias: dind-service
and then
script:
- docker run -d -p 8080:80 httpd:alpine
- curl dind-service:8080
Hth,

I am very convinced that #Yuriy Znatokov's answer is what I want, but I have understood it for a long time. In order to make it easier for later people to understand, I have exported the complete steps.
1) From inside the docker:dind container
docker run -d --name mydind --privileged docker:dind
/ # docker run -d -p 8080:80 httpd:alpine
/ # curl localhost:8080
<html><body><h1>It works!</h1></body></html>
2) From inside the docker:latest container
docker run -d --name mydind --privileged docker:dind
docker run -it --link mydind:docker docker:latest sh
/ # docker run -d -p 8080:80 httpd:alpine
/ # curl mydind:8080
<html><body><h1>It works!</h1></body></html>
Hello fellows I have made a custom wordpress image located there: https://github.com/ellakcy/wordpressWithPlugins
And on entrypoint script I am using wp-cli in order to generate a custom user in order to preinstall plugins. But I cannot login to the control panel with the generated user from wp-cli.
Do you have any Idea how to fix it?
The entrypoint of the script is the following: https://github.com/ellakcy/wordpressWithPlugins/blob/master/docker-entrypoint.sh
I run the containers with these commands: (for development purpose)
docker run --name wpdb -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=1234 -d mariadb
docker run --name mywordpress --link wpdb:mysql -p 8080:80 -ti wp
And I am using apache as reverse proxy in order to access the wordpress running in the mywordpress container:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ProxyPass / http://172.17.0.3/
ProxyPassReverse http://172.17.0.3/ /
</Virtualhost>
(In place of 172.17.0.3 can be the ip of the container running the wordpress)
Edit 1
I managed to login by setting up a network:
docker network create --subnet="172.19.0.0/16" wordpress_default
And setting the custom ips to the coontainers. (Also I set some Enviromental variables too.)
RUN MYSQL/MARIADB
docker run --name wpdb --net wordpress_default --ip 172.19.0.2 -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=1234 -d mariadb
run wordpress docker with some extra enviiromental variables
docker run --name mywordpress --net wordpress_default --ip 172.19.0.3 --link wpdb:mysql -e WORDPRESS_ADMIN_PASSWORD=1234 -e WORDPRESS_ADMIN_EMAIL=pc_magas#openmailbox.org -e WORDPRESS_URL=172.19.0.3 -p 8080:80 -ti wp
And visiting the wordpress site via the ip given oon the second coommand. But I still have problems with the local apache running as reverse proxy.
In the end just manually setting the machine's ip as url works like a charm.
docker run --name wpdb --net wordpress_default --ip 172.19.0.2 -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=1234 -d mariadb
run wordpress docker with some extra enviiromental variables
docker run --name mywordpress --net wordpress_default --ip 172.19.0.3 --link wpdb:mysql -e WORDPRESS_ADMIN_PASSWORD=1234 -e WORDPRESS_ADMIN_EMAIL=pc_magas#openmailbox.org -e WORDPRESS_URL=172.19.0.3 -p 8080:80 -ti wp
All I had to do wat to set the following vhost to my apache:
<VirtualHost *:80>
RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto "http"
ProxyPass / http://172.19.0.3/
ProxyPassReverse http://172.19.0.3/ /
</Virtualhost>
(Perhaps for production may need some changes)
I have an nginx service running with the following configuration
location /.well-known {
root /tmp/letsencrypt/;
}
I execute the following docker command
sudo docker run -it --rm --name certbot \
-v /etc/letsencrypt \
-v /var/lib/letsencrypt \
-v /tmp/letsencrypt \
quay.io/letsencrypt/letsencrypt:latest certonly \
--webroot --webroot-path /tmp/letsencrypt \
-d dev.blockloop.io --renew-by-default
I get the following output from letsencrypt
Type: unauthorized
Detail: Invalid response from
http://dev.blockloop.io/.well-known/acme-challenge/wupz1YYLDRv8dJRYegoFXfZ24rJCwRrenQxBoYndO30:
"<html>
<head><title>404 Not Found</title></head>
<body bgcolor="white">
<center><h1>404 Not Found</h1></center>
<hr><center>"
and my nginx logs say this
nginx_1 | 2016/05/28 20:10:44 [error] 6#6: *1 open() "/tmp/letsencrypt/.well-known/acme-challenge/wupz1YYLDRv8dJRYegoFXfZ24rJCwRrenQxBoYndO30" failed (2: No such file or directory), client: 66.133.109.36, server: dev.blockloop.io, request: "GET /.well-known/acme-challenge/wupz1YYLDRv8dJRYegoFXfZ24rJCwRrenQxBoYndO30 HTTP/1.1", host: "dev.blockloop.io"

when I look in /tmp/letsencrypt I expect to see some files leftover by letsencrypt, but the only thing there is an empty .well-known directory. I suspect either letsencrypt is cleaning up or it's not creating the files.
If I drop an index.html file in /tmp/letsencrypt/.well-known and go to http://dev.blockloop.io/.well-known/ I see its contents so I know nginx is working properly.
I managed to fix the problem somehow. I think the solution was the trailing slash at the end of --webroot-path /tmp/letsencrypt/, but who knows. Here's the resulting script. Everything else remained the same.
sudo docker run -it --rm --name certbot \
-v "/etc/letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt" \
-v "/var/lib/letsencrypt:/var/lib/letsencrypt" \
-v "/tmp/letsencrypt:/tmp/letsencrypt" \

--webroot --webroot-path /tmp/letsencrypt/ \

I am trying to host a simple static site using the Docker Nginx Image from Dockerhub: https://registry.hub.docker.com/_/nginx/
A note on my setup, I am using boot2docker on OSX.
I have followed the instructions and even I cannot connect to the running container:

Instead of localhost, use boot2docker ip. First do boot2docker ip and use that ip:
<your-b2d-ip>:8080. Also you need to make sure you forwarded your port 8080 in VirtualBox for boot2docker.
Here is the way to connect nginx docker container service:
docker ps # confirm nginx is running, which you have done.
docker port wargames-front-end # get the ports, for example: 80/tcp, 0.0.0.0:8080->8080/tcp, 443/tcp
boot2docker ip # get the IP address, for example: 192.168.59.103
So now, you should be fine to connect to:
http://192.168.59.103:8080
https://192.168.59.103:8080
Here's how I got it to work.
docker kill wargames-front-end
docker rm wargames-front-end
docker run --name wargames-front-end -d -p 8080:80 wargames-front-end
Then I went to my virtualbox and setup these settings:
