Description

On Windows the container cannot access the host network, localhost, 127.0.0.1, ::1, or by ip assigned with DHCP. An example is podman run -d --name hasura -p 8080:8080 -e HASURA_GRAPHQL_DATABASE_URL=postgres://postgres:postgres@192.168.1.5:5432/postgres -e HASURA_GRAPHQL_ENABLE_CONSOLE=true -e HASURA_GRAPHQL_DEV_MODE=true -e HASURA_GRAPHQL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY=false docker.io/hasura/graphql-engine:v2.5.0

The hasura container will not see the postgres instance on 192.168.1.5 at port 5432. The exact same on Mac OS does not have this issue. It can see the host services without any special config.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Run the command above with a local running postgres.

Describe the results you received:

Error the container tries to connect and fails.

Describe the results you expected:

I expect it to connect and finish running.

Output of podman version:
