I configured my project to work with the listed technologies, but when requesting the route http://localhost: 3000/sidekiq, it gives the error Error connecting to Redis on 127.0.0.1:6379 (Errno :: ECONNREFUSED). In the terminal where docker is running, you can see the following:

Please tell me if I missed some configuration file or where I am wrong with the settings?

  1. Chosen as BEST ANSWER

    In my case the reason was that I forgot to add

    env_file:
    - .env
    

    in #docker-compose.yml in section "web". If someone will ever needs more info, I can answer here:)


  2. I had the same issue but it was not a.env file problem.
    For me it was the format of REDIS_URL that was wrong.

    I had:

    REDIS_URL=redis:http://localhost:6379
    

    And I changed it to:

    REDIS_URL=redis://redis:6379/0
