I was trying to dockerize my java application to get data from youtube and storing to local file. The app works on my local, but I am unable to get it to work in a docker container. The exception occurs when I try to connect to youtube.com via http. I am using the following dockerfile:

FROM maven:3.8 AS build
RUN mkdir /usr/src/project
COPY . /usr/src/project
WORKDIR /usr/src/project
RUN mvn clean install -DskipTests

FROM adoptopenjdk/openjdk11:alpine-jre
RUN mkdir /project
WORKDIR /project
RUN mkdir sharedZone
COPY --from=build /usr/src/project/target/YouTubePlaylistPuller-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar /project/
COPY ./entrypoint.sh /project/
RUN echo 'hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4' >> /etc/nsswitch.conf
RUN chmod +x ./entrypoint.sh
ENTRYPOINT ["/project/entrypoint.sh"] // Entrypoint is java -jar with $@

I am getting the following exception:

My docker run is: docker run -it --network=host --add-host='myMachineHostName':127.0.0.1 -u 1000 -v /root/sharedFolder/:/project/sharedZone/ youtube-test-23 /project/sharedZone/inputs/1.properties

Things that I tried:

  1. DNS correction - Docker openjdk:8 UnknownHostException

    • exec adoptopenjdk/openjdk11:alpine-jre, and I got these entries for /etc/hosts

      /project # cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1   localhost
...

      and these entries for ```/etc/resolv.conf nameserver 8.8.8.8 nameserver 8.8.4.4 search lan example.com

  2. Sending hostname and add-host path - https://medium.com/yohan-liyanage/docker-machine-moby-name-or-service-not-known-bd2a7c74abc2

    • Still does not work

  3. java.net.UnknownHostException on Docker

    • No, I already have the entry for 127.0.0.1 localhost I am unable to understand wht am I getting unknown host exception, even when I am using all default options for network on docker. Even without the --network=host flag, I am getting the same exception.

  4. Specifying the dns with docker run - UnknownHostException within Docker Container on Alpine openjdk:8-jdk-alpine

    • No

What should I do to correct this? Please help.

    Take a look at the url www.youtube.comtrue, it doesn't look like YouTube url Commented Oct 9, 2022 at 16:33

    It seems that you are sending requests to www.youtube.comtrue, which is apparently not a valid domain on the Internet. It might be related to your business logic; could you post the code that sends requests as well? Commented Oct 9, 2022 at 16:34
  • Yeah that was the issue. I had checked it using the test cases, but the order of the arguments was changed when I was passing it to the docker run. :( Commented Oct 9, 2022 at 16:48
