Hi
I want to run cassandra docker image and want to connect it with my application running in another container. I am on Windows10 and both containers are running on same Windows10 Home machine. I also have Cassandra installed on the machine as standalone application (without Docker). I thought to use host.docker.internal as domain name in both the applications. But when I start cassandra image, I get error org.apache.cassandra.exceptions.ConfigurationException: Unable to bind to address host.docker.internal/192.168.65.2:7000. Set listen_address in cassandra.yaml to an interface you can bind to, e.g., your private IP address on EC2 Question 1) Why is host.docker.internal resolving to 192.168.65.2/7000?. Shouldn't it be 192.168.1.12 as that is what is configured in my etc/hosts file on Windows 10 C:\Users\manuc>ping host.docker.internal Pinging host.docker.internal [192.168.1.12] with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 192.168.1.12: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 192.168.1.12: bytes=32 time=1ms TTL=128 Reply from 192.168.1.12: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 192.168.1.12: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 I also tried explicitly specifying 192.168.1.12 when starting cassandra images but I get similar error. The only way I am able to start the container is by running docker run ca795bbd8fd7 but in this case, cassandra listens at address 0.0.0.0 for cqlsh Starting listening for CQL clients on /0.0.0.0:9042 (unencrypted).. But in this case, my other docker application or cqlsh of the standalone CasSandra is unable to connect with it (running on the same windows machine) C:\Users\manuc>cqlsh host.docker.internal 9042 Connection error: ('Unable to connect to any servers', {'192.168.1.12': error(10061, "Tried connecting to [('192.168.1.12', 9042)].
