How to access "http://localhost" from a Docker container in Windows?
<p>I have a set of containers running in Windows 10 with Docker, this is the output of <code>docker-compose ps</code>:</p>

<pre><code>&gt; docker-compose ps
     Name                    Command               State                          Ports
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
db_mysql          docker-entrypoint.sh mysqld      Up      3306/tcp
elk               /usr/bin/supervisord -n -c ...   Up      0.0.0.0:81-&gt;80/tcp
php71-fpm-nginx   /config/bootstrap.sh             Up      443/tcp, 0.0.0.0:80-&gt;80/tcp, 0.0.0.0:9001-&gt;9001/tcp
</code></pre>

<p>And this is the output of <code>docker inspect</code>:</p>

<pre><code>&gt; docker inspect php71-fpm-nginx

<p>I am trying to access <code>http://localhost</code> but I can't. I've tried also using the container IP meaning <code>http://172.18.0.3</code> and doesn't work either. </p>

<p>When I say I can't it means the following message:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>This site can’t be reached
  172.18.0.3 took too long to respond.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>The same container works perfectly in Linux.</p>

<p>This is the content of <code>c:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts</code> file:</p>

<pre><code># localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
    127.0.0.1       localhost
</code></pre>

<p>The ports from the container are mapped to the host in the <code>docker-compose.yml</code> file:</p>

<pre><code>services:
  php-fpm:
    container_name: "php71-fpm-nginx"
    build: php-fpm
    ports:
        - 80:80
        - 9001:9001
    environment:
        PHP_ERROR_REPORTING: 'E_ALL &amp; ~E_DEPRECATED &amp; ~E_NOTICE'
        STATUS_PAGE_ALLOWED_IP: '127.0.0.1'
    volumes:
        - D:\Development\www\:/data/www
</code></pre>

<p>What I am missing here?</p>
