Failing to start API, bind can't assign the requested address

Failed to start API listen tcp 192.168.99.1:8080: bind: can't assign requested address

System: Mac OS X, 64 bit
Dockerfile and build.yml file are in the same directory

Command that I tried to run is:
habitus --build host=192.168.99.1 --secrets=true --binding=192.168.99.1
Changing the ip inputs in both arguments still resulted in the same error

Omitting both ip arguments and keeping secrets still resulted in the above error.

It works with 127.0.0.1

hi @spacether good to know you figured it out. 192.168.99.1 is just an IP address as an example. when you run habitus on macosx you can bind to 127.0.0.1 or the IP address of your network interface.
