Hi,
I have built two basic hello world Spring boot web application docker images with fabric8 docker-maven-plugin.
Both the web applications use tomcat as the runtime which by default runs on port 8080. I have made the required change in one of the web applications to run tomcat on port 8888.
I have started the web application containers like below
1st web application:
docker run -p 8099:8080 firstwebapp-docker-image
2nd web application (second web application runs on port 8888)
docker run -p 8096:8888 secondwebapp-docker-image
Actually I am trying to access the second web application REST API from the first web application. Basically I am trying to access an application in one container from another container. But I am getting Connection refused exception. In the first web application, I am triggering the second web application URL like http://localhost:8096/, which is NOT working and getting Connection refused exception.
But when I try the same URL ‘http://localhost:8096/’ through the browser it is working fine.
I am trying on Windows 10 professional system with Docker for windows with Hyper-V enabled.
I am not knowing where I am doing wrong. Please help me.
Thank you,
