I am trying to run a gitlab docker image, and everything is running fine except that when I navigate to the website, Port 80 results in "Connection refused", but port 8080 successfully reaches Gitlab.
However, it shows that it's forwarding from 8080 to 80 on the container:
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
14b2ac3c0de6 gitlab/gitlab-ee "/assets/wrapper" About a minute ago Up About a minute 0.0.0.0:8080->80/tcp, 0.0.0.0:8443->443/tcp gitlab
Here's how I'm running the container.
sudo docker run --detach \
--publish 8443:443 --publish 8080:80 --publish 2222:22 \
--name gitlab \
--restart always \
--volume /srv/gitlab/config:/etc/gitlab \
--volume /srv/gitlab/logs:/var/log/gitlab \
--volume /srv/gitlab/data:/var/opt/gitlab \
gitlab/gitlab-ee:latest
Use --publish 80:80
if you want to access the service via port 80 on the host. Otherwise there's nothing on the host listening on port 80 and you get connection refused. Same goes for 443.
The format is
--publish <host port>:<container port>
