[Mac M1] NFS connection refused

Docker Desktop for Mac

Hello everyone,

I’m trying to work with NFS volume but I’m getting the following error:

renansantos@Supports-MacBook-Pro myrepo % docker-compose up
Creating my-container ... error

ERROR: for my-container  Cannot create container for service my-container: failed to mount local volume: mount :/Users/renansantos/Git/myrepo/var/lib/docker/volumes/myrepo/_data, data: addr=127.0.0.1,nolock,hard,nointr,nfsvers=3: connection refused

Content from /etc/exports, my user id is 502.

nfsd is running

renansantos@Supports-MacBook-Pro bin % nfsd status
nfsd service is enabled
nfsd is running (pid 2581, 8 threads)

I’m on macOS Monterey 12.3(Chip Apple M1) using the last version from Docker Desktop, I tested changing the nfs version to 4 but it didn’t work.

Also, I’ve added full disk access for Docker and Docker-compose in security and privacy.

Do you have any idea how I can fix it?

Thanks!

It is a guess, because I don’t use NFS volumes often, especially not with “localhost” and I don’t remember how NFS volumes are mounted into a container, but you should not use “localhost” since even if your NFS server is on your MacOS locally, docker is running inside a virtual machine so it will not be able to see the server. You can try host.docker.internal or use the IP address of your machine.
