I’m confused about making a connection from nginx alpine to nginx alpine
both use laravel 9
on the host I can access both using http://localhost:8080
and http://localhost:5001
but when I try to use guzzle in frontend like this
$response = $http->get('http://dashboard:5001');
result is
cURL error 7: Failed to connect to dashboard_service port 5001 after 0 ms:
Connection refused
and I try to curl from frontend container to dashboard container the result is connection refused.I can ping it, but curl not work
this is my docker-compose.yml
version: "3.8"
networks:
networkname:
services:
frontend:
build:
context: .
dockerfile: ./file/Dockerfile
container_name: frontend
ports:
- 8080:80
volumes:
- ./frontend:/code
- ./.docker/php-fpm.conf:/etc/php8/php-fpm.conf
- ./.docker/php.ini-production:/etc/php8/php.ini
- ./.docker/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
- ./.docker/nginx-laravel.conf:/etc/nginx/modules/nginx-laravel.conf
networks:

dashboard:
build:
context: .
dockerfile: ./file/Dockerfile
container_name: dashboard
ports:

volumes:

- ./.docker/php.ini-production:/etc/php8/php.ini
- ./.docker/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
- ./.docker/nginx-laravel.conf:/etc/nginx/modules/nginx-laravel.conf
networks:

this is my dockerfile
FROM alpine:latest
WORKDIR /var/www/html/

RUN mkdir -p /run/php/
RUN mkdir -p /test
RUN touch /run/php/php8.0-fpm.pid
CMD ["supervisord", "-c", "/etc/supervisor.d/supervisord.ini"]
this is my nginx conf
server {

server_name localhost;

add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN";
add_header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff";
index index.php;

location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}
location = /favicon.ico { access_log off; log_not_found off; }
location = /robots.txt { access_log off; log_not_found off; }
error_page 404 /index.php;
location ~ .php$ {
fastcgi_pass localhost:9000;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $realpath_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
location ~ /.(?!well-known).* {
deny all;
}
}
I’m confused about having to set it up in docker, nginx or alpine linux
Thanks.

Hello if you try this from inside container’s php you needn’t check it with port
Type such from php:
But, if you check this from out container you may enter like ip:port
If you are connecting to a docker container within the same network, then use the internal port. If not, use the external port.
In your case, you are trying to connect to the dashboard container from within
networkname
network. So tryhttp://dashboard
instead ofhttp://dashboard:5001
