Port 8013 unavailable installing the Data Hub Central warfile in MarkLogic running in a docker container

Question

My docker configuration needs to map ports for external access, but when trying to install the data hub central war file, mlDeploy and mlRedeploy encounter problems, that the ports are unavailable:

Task :mlDeployApp
Creating custom rewriters for staging and job app servers
Loading REST options for staging server
Initializing ExecutorService
Loading default query options from file default.xml
Shutting down ExecutorService
Loading REST options for jobs server
Initializing ExecutorService
Loading traces query options from file traces.xml
Shutting down ExecutorService

Writing traces query options to MarkLogic; port: 8013
Error occurred while loading modules; host: localhost; port: 8013;
 cause: java.net.ConnectException: Failed to connect to localhost/127.0.0.1:8013

...

• What went wrong: Execution failed for task ':mlDeployApp'.

Error occurred while loading REST modules: Error occurred while loading modules; host: localhost; port: 8013; cause: java.net.ConnectException: Failed to connect to localhost/127.0.0.1:8013

Docker file contents

FROM store/marklogicdb/marklogic-server:10.0-7-dev-centos WORKDIR /tmp EXPOSE 7997-8040 EXPOSE 8080 EXPOSE 9000 CMD /etc/init.d/MarkLogic start && tail -f /dev/null

Original docker run command:

docker run -d --name=marklogic10.0-7_local -p 7997-8040:7997-8040 -p 8080:8080 -p 9000:9000 marklogic-initial-install:10.0-7-dev-centos

Revised docker run command:

docker run -d --name=marklogic10.0-7_local -p 7997-8012:7997-8012 -p 8014-8040:8014-8040 -p 8043:8013 -p 8090:8080 -p 9000:9000 marklogic-initial-install:10.0-7-dev-centos

Note: I originally had the same problem with port 8080 but mapped it to port 8090 which fixed the problem. Doing the same for port 8013 did not work.

Answer 1

The problem was with the installation steps and not the ports.
