What's wrong with my settings?

Here's my docker-compose.yml that I start with sudo docker-compose up -d

which ends up like that:

CONTAINER ID        IMAGE               COMMAND                  CREATED             STATUS              PORTS                                  NAMES

    container_name: mongodb
    environment:

    ports:

    restart: unless-stopped

I tried connecting to it using Robot 3T via localhost/127.0.0.1/0.0.0.0 but it always results in

"remote computer refusing to connect"

Thanks in advance

edit.

I tried those:

Answer 1

If you want to connect without a fancy GUI you could do the next steps:

1. GO to the terminal
2. connect to the container by docker exec -it MongoDB bash
3. call to mongodb

If you like to use mongodb and to see it in fancy GUI I recommend using dbvear

Answer 2

I cannot reproduce the problem, but here are the steps I took.

1. Copy your compose file into Windows filesystem.
2. Open Windows Powershell , not WSL2 terminal (I think this is your problem, by the fact that you're using sudo )
3. Run docker compose up (which uses the newer Compose V2)
4. Run netstat -ab in the Powershell session to see 0.0.0.0:27017 is indeed listening on the windows host
5. Successfully connect with Robo 3T with the username/password on localhost:27017

Using Docker for Windows with WSL2 Integration enabled

Answer 3

Try using Using host.docker.internal:27017 instead of localhost:27017 .

While I never used Robo 3T this solved the issue for me when I ran into the same problem with mongocompass.

As already mentioned you might want to use docker directly in windows and run docker-compose up in powershell.

Answer 4

To connect from window host to linux WSL2, you could use localhost, or when it fails the WSL2 ip.
You can get it using from WSL2 with hostname -I | cut -f 1 -d ' ' hostname -I | cut -f 1 -d ' '
