Hi IM having 2 problems when using the vmware_fusion and docker providers together in multi-machine config. I am using the native docker base images i.e. force_host_vm = false

below is the Vagantfile

# -*- mode: ruby -*-

# vi: set ft=ruby :

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|

config.vm.define "db" do |db|

db.ssh.username = "root"

db.ssh.password = "xxxxx"

db.ssh.host = "localhost"

db.ssh.port = 2202

db.vm.provider "docker" do |d|

d.image = "xxxxx:8091/ims-oracle"

d.force_host_vm = false

d.ports = [ "49162:1521" ]

d.has_ssh = true

end

config.vm.define "adc" do |adc|

adc.vm.box = "nick/win2012core-ad"

adc.vm.box_url = "http://xxxx:8081/repository/vagrant/nick/win2012core-ad/metadata.json"

adc.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 88, host: 10088, protocol: "tcp"

adc.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 88, host: 10088, protocol: "udp"

adc.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 53, host: 10053, protocol: "tcp"

adc.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 53, host: 10053, protocol: "udp"

end

Problem 1:

I am unable to get ssh access to the docker container when using the docker provider in a multi machine config, however if I use it in a docker only config works fine.

output from docker ps is

CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES

bca7bcd2ce13 dhpsciq01:8091/ims-oracle "/bin/sh -c '/usr/..." 14 hours ago Up 21 seconds 22/tcp, 8080/tcp, 0.0.0.0:49162->1521/tcp ims_db_1490789906

when using docker only config

# -*- mode: ruby -*-

# vi: set ft=ruby :

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|

config.ssh.username = "root"

config.ssh.password = "admin"

config.ssh.host = "localhost"

config.ssh.port = 2202

config.vm.provider "docker" do |d|

# d.vagrant_vagrantfile = "./docker-host-vm/Vagrantfile"

d.image = "dhpsciq01:8091/ims-oracle"

d.has_ssh = true

d.force_host_vm = false

d.ports = [ "49162:1521" ]

end

the output from docker ps is:

CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES

6363f2bd65cf dhpsciq01:8091/ims-oracle "/bin/sh -c '/usr/..." 21 hours ago Up 14 seconds 8080/tcp, 127.0.0.1:2202->22/tcp, 0.0.0.0:49162->1521/tcp oracle-sacs_default_1490715212

and i can ssh into the box. Why is this?

Problem 2:

Im struggling to figure out how to configure networking between the vmware VM and the docker container. Does anyone have any bright ideas on this?

Hello.

on linux, you can run docker natively, and the vagrant will run docker commands and work fine.

If you go without vagrant creating the VM, its a bit of trial/error to get this working, as Vagrant will create a script for the docker that should be available to the docker container

the problem is docker-engine on windows/mac will create a VM anyways and vagrant is not aware of that part.

also, on docker world, the idea behind docker is not to run ssh , so seems you are on a very specific use case where the out of the box hello world is far from there.

If you could create a more simple repo with public docker, will be easier to give it a go and help.

Alvaro.

Hi Alvaro, thanks fro your quick response. the docker image I'm using is based on wnameless/oracle-xe-11g (https://store.docker.com/community/images/wnameless/oracle-xe-11g) and this should behave identically to my custom container.

when is set d.force_host_vm = true using hashicorp/boot2docker (vmware_desktop, 1.7.8)

and d.has_ssh = false

i get the following error

default: Rsyncing folder: /Volumes/NickSSD/vagrant-test/ims/ => /var/lib/docker/docker_1490795341_77261

doc...@192.168.177.158's password:

Any ideas?

Also any suggestion around how to create a network between the docker container and VM would be greatly appreciated.

hello

can you create a github repo with just a simple ubuntu:latest to see if we can get this working?

when we get soemthing that work, we can move to a more complex one

Thanks

Alvaro
