http://localhost/ is unreachable

[raihanflores]

HI,

Everything was installed without issues and I can also see that all 3 containers are running. But accessing http://localhost doesn't seem to work. I get This site can’t be reached is there something that I missed?

command: docker-compose up -d

Thanks,
Ryann

Hey @raihanflores,

You are actually missing the host port here...

If you do a docker-compose ps, you'll see to which port is your nginx install mapped to. In my case, the port is 32768:

         Name                        Command               State               Ports              
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
netboxdocker_netbox_1     /docker-entrypoint.sh            Up                                     
netboxdocker_nginx_1      nginx -g daemon off; -c /e ...   Up      443/tcp, 0.0.0.0:32768->80/tcp 
netboxdocker_postgres_1   docker-entrypoint.sh postgres    Up      5432/tcp  

Hitting http://localhost:32768 should work for you :).

@cimnine Don't we want to link to the host port 80 by default here? Either that or changing the README, so that we can have a seamless experience :).

Port 80 is unfeasible, because it is a privileged port and requires superuser permissions for a program to bind to.

Updating the README would be the way to go IMO.

Thank you for reporting this. I hope the README is clearer now.
