无法连接到Google Cloud Platform上的Wordpress Docker Container。

Question

Ok so I have read the other connecting to docker container questions and mine does not seem to fit any of the other ones. So here it goes. I have installed docker and docker compose. I built the Wordpress site on a my home machine and am not trying to migrate it to GCP. I got a micro instance and installed everything on there and as far as I can tell everything is up and running as it should be. But when I go to log into the site from the web browser I get -

**This site can’t be reached
xx.xxx.xx.xx refused to connect.
Try:
Checking the connection
Checking the proxy and the firewall
ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED**

these are the ports opened up in my .yml file

- "8000:80"</b>
- "443"</b>
- "22"</b>

I have also tried 8080:80 and 80:80 to no availe

and when I check docker port it shows

 80/tcp -> 0.0.0.0:32770</br>
 80/tcp -> 0.0.0.0:8000</br>
 22/tcp -> 0.0.0.0:32771</br>
 443/tcp -> 0.0.0.0:443</br>

and when I check netstat from localhost and from another machine I get Active Internet connections (only servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name

               - 

when I run docker ps I get:

Also I have both http and https open on my google cloud firewall.

So if I am listening on port 80 and have it mapped to 8000(the port I was connecting to the container on on my dev machine) I do not understand why I can not get to the WP site in the browser. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also I think I included everything needed for this question. If there is anything else I will be more than happy to post it .

Answer 1

Ok so after a lot of tries I finally figured it out. In the yml file I needed to take out port -"80" and change -"8000:80" to -"80:80" and then remove the old containers and rebuild them.
