Firewall Timeout Issue: Docker for MAC with Redshift

Hi,

I am trying to setup a Docker container which can connect to Amazon Redshift using a postgresql driver from my Mac. This is critical for development.

Redshift requires specific configuration http://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/mgmt/connecting-firewall-guidance.html#change-tcpip-settings to support long running queries. However, the settings don’t work on the container. They do work natively on Mac.

Any suggestions to help with root cause analysis and possible fix.

Thanks,
Sameer

We got this to work. There was a bug in our python application code that hanged inside the container.

Thanks!
