Cannot run apt-get update successfully behind proxy (Beta 13.1)

maltebreuer · May 31, 2016, 8:01am

Situation

After installing beta 13.1 running docker pull works flawlessly behind a proxy. However, inside a container proxy settings are not propagated properly.

Expected behavior

apt-get runs successfully (pulls updates, installs updates)

Actual behavior

apt-get cannot connect

Thanks for the report. This is being tracked on issue (#3526). I’ve got a fix pending and hope that it should be available in the next beta!

sgeisbacher · June 2, 2016, 12:16pm

in which github-repository can i find that issue #3526. can you provide a link? i’ve looked in hyperkit, docker, libcompose, compose, … but i did not find that issue

vdweij · February 10, 2017, 11:10am

I’m experiencing the same issue. Can download and run Docker images, but a running container cannot connect to the outside world.

http_proxy and https_proxy are both set but apt-get update fails.

From the container I can ping the host (docker daemon), but not the proxy server.

Running Docker version 1.13.1, build 092cba3 on Ubuntu 16.04

Any suggestions?

vdweij · February 10, 2017, 12:55pm

Solved for me. DNS setting were wrong for my environment. The company firewall blocks dns lookup to google’s dns (8.8.8.8)
When starting the container with -dns=ip-of-company-dns nslookups were successful and the container could resolve the ip of the proxy server.

All that is left for me is to find a nice global way to tell docker to start all containers with a custom dns configuration.

Adding a /etc/docker/daemon.json to my host with works:

{
  "dns" : [
    "company_ip1",
    "company_ip2",
    "8.8.8.8",
    "8.8.4.4"
  ]
}

Adding the dns to /etc/default/docker does not get picked up as stated in the file.

Hi, I have the same issue now. I tried the DNS solution proposed by vdweij, but it did not work for me.

Do you guys found a solution by now?

Where can I find the said issue #3526?

leeyuiwah · October 9, 2017, 2:04am

I now found a solution to my problem. It is documented here
