Docker bridge and Falcon gunicorn

Question

I would like to run on EC2 instance simple API build in Falcon and gunicorn. I would like to access that API from docker container installed on that host over bridge (docker0 IP 172.17.0.1).

I am running API application by using gunicorn command:

gunicorn -b 172.17.0.1:8000 simple-api:api

I can ping that IP address from docker and I can telnet to port 8000 but when I execute curl POST command I am getting following error:

 < HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
 * Server gunicorn/19.7.1 is not blacklisted
 < Server: gunicorn/19.7.1

Answer 1

Problem is solved. I had a typo in POST requests.
