I'm new here and that's my 1st question so tell me if anything is wrong in the way I put it.

So here's the problem: I'm building a LAMP stack with 3 separate containers for nginx, maiadb and wordpress.

The whole nginx and php-fpm seems to work well, as I can access the site's index and process php pages. Mdb builds the wordpress db and creates a "wordpress@wordpress-php" user with all privileges on it.

It starts to go wrong when I access the site for installation, I get stuck with a : "Error establishing a database connection"

Here is my wp-config.php, that I copy in the wordpress dir inside the container:

 <?php

I set the bind-address of mariadb on 0.0.0.0 in ./etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-se rver.cnf and ./etc/mysql/my.cnf to be sure that th db is indeed listening from every ip.

I think the problem comes from the wp-config.php , but as I understood in a docker-compose environment you can refer to each container with his name instead of ip, and I don't know how I could retrieve mariadb's IP from wordpress-php.

Please help me, thanks in advance to anyone that read that far! ^^

  • Check the php-fpm error log for any clues. You will probably have to enter the container to get access to it as you did not export it in a volume. – Michael Hampton Jul 24 '21 at 20:08
