Error: failed to connect to [localhost:3001] about meteord HOT 8 OPEN

You need to set a correct Mongo URL? You need to run a mongodb server on
port 3001, according to the above settings.

Hi,

Thanks for this project :) I am very interested to dockerize my project,
to simplify it's distribution.

I was able to create the image but when I try to run it with this command

docker run -d
-e ROOT_URL=http://localhost:3000
-e MONGO_URL=mongodb://localhost:3001/meteor
-e METEOR_SETTINGS='{ALL_MY_SETTINGS}'
-p 3000:80
picsoung/apisio

but in the logs of the container I have Error: failed to connect to
[localhost:3001]
I am just trying to run on the default port.

What goes wrong?
Thanks for your help :)

the default mongodb server is not on 3001 when you just run your meteor application with meteor ?

meteord is different. It don't use meteor to run your app. It's a meteor
bundle running with pure node. It don't have mongodb as well.

I see... so I have to add instructions to launch the mongodb server ?
Where should it go?
on the Dockerfile?

from meteord.

any update on this? trying to just run a standard meteor app. do we have to deploy a second container for mongo?

@picsoung @markoshust Yes, you need to run mongo separately. For an example of how to do this with docker, see the example in the comment at the end of the docker registry page.

Thanks, I get it now. The 'meteor' command caused us not to think of how much node is involved and how it runs meteor. This article explained quite a bit for me - http://www.qasimzeeshan.com/how-to-deploy-meteor-telescope-on-centos/

This ticket can probably be closed because it's not an issue.

Just to clarify: Meteor runs its own "fake" mongodb when in development mode. This is not a production mongodb. You need to deploy and connect a proper mongod instance on your service / network. You can then tell Meteor to connect via network or locally to the mongodb. If you choose the latter you need to link the mongo container to the meteor container.
