We’re enjoying discourse thus far. I’m having an issue with running a rebuild of the docker container. The container won’t rebuild because for some reason it can’t resolve github.com. I know the host system (debian jessie) can resolve at that time via dig && ping. However if I issue a systemctl restart docker the issue goes away.
I turned to the goog or alphabet machine which suggested starting the docker daemon using the goog’s dns which I’ve done and confirmed that it seems to have taken via a systemctl status docker.
I’ve been able to reproduce on a debian droplet and a virtual box vm.
Also I’ve been able to successfully pull a Ubuntu image, and run the container.
I’m not sure if there’s something in launcher or any other suggestions? Working off of git master, and is up to date.
shortlist:
Debian Jessie Kernel 3.16
Docker version 1.6.2, build 7c8fca2

Hi @sam thanks for taking the time to review.
I have that option uncommented in /etc/defaults/docker, and I’ve restarted the docker service many times.
To clarify, after restarting the docker service the laucher rebuild will work once, after that I have to restart the service.
Interestingly though, when I ping6 github.com I of course do not recieve a response because github does not have AAAA records i believe. https://i.imgur.com/Qu9OJg9.png
This isn’t a Discourse problem, it’s a Docker problem. You’ll probably get more knowledgeable help at the Docker support forums (which, helpfully, also run Discourse).
I figured out the issue and solution to this problem at least for me.
The issue was that Docker uses 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as its DNS and I had an OVH network based firewall blocking ALL IPv4 traffic that did not match port 80, 443, and a few other specific rules. I had to authorize IPv4 traffic for 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
