    DATABASES = {
        'default': {
            'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql',
            'NAME': 'postgres',
            'USER': 'postgres',
            'PASSWORD': 'postgres',
            'HOST': 'db',
            'PORT': 5432,
        }
    }

Error while executing python3 manage.py makemigrations:
django.db.utils.OperationalError: could not translate host name “db” to address: Temporary failure in name resolution

I tried adding - POSTGRES_HOST_AUTH_METHOD="trust" however the error remained.

I also tried changing 'HOST': 'db' to 'HOST': 'localhost' and then I can run the make migrations but I get this error:
Is the server running on host “localhost” (::1) and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?

I saw many similar questions but none of the answers seems to fix the problem. Any suggestions according to my docker-compose and setting?

Hey. Newbie here. Did you ever solve this issue? I’m going through it rn.

I’m in the same boat as Newbie. Has a solution to this problem been found yet? I’ve been stuck for a couple days trying to solve this issue.
