.local call in NodeRed fails

[mikeyman83]

Hi There,

Making my first steps with Docker, in a try to move my stuff from a Raspberry Pi to my DS1520+ nas.
One of the items i’m moving is NodeRed.

An API call i’m making on the Pi, doesn’t work on the docker container.
The error is:

This is the result of the simplest of calls:
https://gateway-2017-8871-5701.local:8443/enduser-mobile-web/1/enduserAPI

Any thoughts around this?

Please, share the error messages as text, since we cannot copy anything from a picture to help you search for the error message. In this case I didn’t need to. don’t forget to format your post properly when you share error messages or code:

How to format your forum posts

The Docker forum is using Discourse, which supports several ways to format your posts: Markdown; see commonmark.org/help for an interactive tutorial BBCode A small selection of HTML Any combination of the above Blank lines for formatting and readability Quite often you’ll need an empty line above specific formatting to make it work. You also need to type blank lines to create proper paragraphs; just pressing Return once and then typing a new block of text right below a previous block only…

What is that hostname? gateway-2017-8871-5701.local If it is just a hostname in your hosts file (/etc/hosts) i and not a DNS record, you will not see that inside a container. Even if you have that hostname inside the hosts file of the container, you when an application tries to resolve the hostname using a DNS server, it will not work.
