I have installed wsl2 , i have ubuntu in it, i have docker in windows enabled wsl2 integration for docker desktop software....my team sent me a docker to run it runs on port 8000, but i am dumb i dont know how to access it, they told they use vbox and port forward 127.0.0.1 to access it from localhost
I want to access it moreover i want to check it whether it works or not i tried curl localhost:8000
In ubuntu of wsl
In Windows browser
I am new so do tell what information you all want i can provide

I'm using docker inside VirtualBox (Ubuntu Server 20.04), since I cannot use Docker Desktop in the host (Windows 10).
I have a docker nodejs container on port 3000. In my host I can access it through 192.168.56.110:3000, where 192.168.56.110 is the IP address of the VM but I need to access it through localhost:3000.
The setup is of course similar to a docker-toolbox installation (as in this question), for which I've found that the host localhost also does not work, to put it simple.
I've tried to map localhost in Windows 10, as suggested in a few answers like this one adding to C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts:
192.168.56.110 localhost
192.168.56.110 dev.com
But while dev.com works right away as expected, localhost doesn't.
Is there a workaround?
When I run an Angular development server in the guest, I can access it via localhost:4200 from the host but it is not completely clear to me what happens behind the scenes. Side question, how does ng serve lead to the "redirection" of localhost in the host OS?
Run as administor a windows command prompt and enter:
netsh interface portproxy add v4tov4 listenaddress=127.0.0.1 listenport=3000 connectaddress=<replace with docker ip address> connectport=3000
To confirm, run
netsh interface portproxy show all
Good luck.
I am using Windows 10 1909 and have installed WSL2, using Ubuntu 20.04, the 19.03.13-beta2 docker version, having installed Docker for Windows Edge version using the WSL2 option. The integration is working pretty great, but I have one issue which I cannot solve.
On the WSL2 instance, there are services running, exposing some ports (3000, 3001, 3002,...). From one of the docker containers, I need to access the services for a specific development scenario (API Gateway), and this I cannot get to work.
I have tried using the WSL2 IP address directly, but then the connect just times out. I have also tried using host.docker.internal, which resolves to something else than the WSL2 IP address, but it still doesn't work.
Is there a special trick I need to pull, or is this kind of routing currently not supported, but will be, or is this for some other reason not possible?
This illustrates what I am trying to achieve:
The other routings work - i.e. I can access all the service ports coming from the node.js processes inside WSL2 from the Windows browser, and also I can access the exposed service ports from the containers both from inside WSL2 and from Windows. It's just this missing link I cannot make work.
So what you need to do in the windows machine port forward the port you are running on the WSL machine, this script port forwards the port 4000
netsh interface portproxy delete v4tov4 listenport="4000" # Delete any existing port 4000 forwarding
$wslIp=(wsl -d Ubuntu -e sh -c "ip addr show eth0 | grep 'inet\b' | awk '{print `$2}' | cut -d/ -f1") # Get the private IP of the WSL2 instance
netsh interface portproxy add v4tov4 listenport="4000" connectaddress="$wslIp" connectport="4000"
And on the container docker run command you have to add
--add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway
or if you are using docker-compose:
extra_hosts:
- "host.docker.internal:host-gateway"
Then inside the container you should be able to curl to
curl host.docker.internal:4000
and get a response!
For what it's worth: This scenario is working if you use the WSL2 subsystem IP address.
It does not work if you use host.docker.internal - this DNS alias is defined in the containers, but it maps to the IP address of the Windows host, not of the WSL2 host, and that routing back inside the WSL2 host does not work.
The reason why this (probably temporarily) did not work is somewhat unclear - I will revisit this answer if the problem should reappear and I manage to track down what the actual problem may have been.
I ran into this problem with the latest Docker Desktop. I rolled it back to 4.2 and it worked.
Docker Desktop 4.2
Windows 19044.1466
Ubuntu 20.04
I have a java service running on a linux local host (accessing the IP address using ifconfig command), my other containers running on docker desktop using the WSL2 based engine, which can communicate to my java service using the IP address.
This sounds like the issue which is discussed here. For me the only thing that worked was running the docker container with --net=host and then using [::1] instead of localhost in the container to access other containers running in WSL.
So for example, container1 is started with docker run --net=host and then calls container2 like this: http://[::1]:8000/container2 (adjust port and path to your specific application)
I'm new to both docker and Nifi, I found this command that installs via docker and used it on a virtual machine that I have in GCP but I would like to access this container via webserver. In docker ps this appears to me:
What command do I need to execute to gain access to the tool via port 8080?
The container has already exposed port 8080 on the host, as evidence by the output 0.0.0.0:8080->8080/tcp. You read that as {HOST_INTERFACE}:{HOST_PORT}->{CONTAINER_PORT}/{PROTOCOL}.
Navigate to http://SERVER_ADDRESS:8080/ (or maybe http://SERVER_ADDRESS:8080/nifi) using your web browser. You may need to modify the firewall rules applied to your VM to ensure that you can access that port from your local machine.
I followed the Docker installation (using the bash script) to install Hortonworks Sandbox onto a server via the Docker component. It is installed on ubuntu 18.04 server.
The install apparently worked. Now what I want to do is be able to get to the website from other machines in the network.
My IP range is standard 192.168.1.*, however, the sandbox container IP is 172.18.0.2. I want to reach the container from outside the server it's installed on. I'm told NAT will work, but I don't know how to work this.
How do I tell Docker/Ubuntu to forward requests to the sandbox? Or change the sandbox IP to something recognizable by other machines on the network?
Use docker run --network=host and all your ports will be listening via your host ip.
I'm trying to learn Docker and so far I have run into a lot of "work arounds" that are needed in docker-machine but not in boot2docker.
My current issue is accessing my docker containers from my host.
I have my Windows host, running a VM created with docker-machine, and inside that docker VM I'm running a simple nginx server container.
The nginx container is ran to expose it's 80 port to the docker-machine's 8000.
docker run -d -p 8000:80 nginx
And what I'm trying to achieve is being able to open this server from my Windows using a browser.
If I in Windows use curl (Git bash, not ssh-ed into the docker-machine VM) using the IP that docker-machine ip gives me, then it works. But using my browser doesn't (I'm using Microsoft Edge currently), I can get the browser to work if I set up a NAT port forwarding.
curl $(docker-machine ip dev):8000
As I've read it should be possible to access the VM ports without specifying port forwarding rules for every port, that VirtualBox should expose and forward those automatically.
What am I doing wrong or do I have to specify port forwarding rules for every port between my VM and host OS that I want to use?
After another day of digging I had the wild and crazy idea to try another browser and it works fine.
So for anyone running into this issue and you're using Microsoft Edge (to try it out like me), switch browser. Chrome and even old IE works fine.
In Bash, $(docker-machine ip dev) means "run the command docker-machine ip dev, take the output of that command and insert it into the command-line here".
If you run
docker-machine ip dev
in your shell, it will print an IP address which you can use in your web browser.
If you put this address in /etc/hosts (or your platform's analog) you can use a friendly alias for the IP address.
In my case, it was because my browser was configured with a proxy pac (Proxy_auto-config file) which did not include 192.169.x.y internal boot2docker machines ips.
That means:
the browser tries to contact the enterprise proxy (and that fails),
while a regular CMD shell session, with a NO_PROXY environment variable set to 192.168.x.y, would allow a curl http://192.168.x.y/... to work without a glitch.
