quick start: web interface does not respond

[smelc]

We're evaluating transitioning from buildbot to concourse but we could not get the Quick Start to work.

Here's the steps I've done:

sudo apt install docker docker-compose
mkdir concourse
cd concourse
wget https://concourse-ci.org/docker-compose.yml
docker-compose up
Open 127.0.0.1:8080 in chrome (tried firefox too)

Both browsers do not fail immediately, there seems to be something at the endpoint:

< lsof -i tcp:8080
COMMAND  PID    USER   FD   TYPE  DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
chrome  3182 churlin   48u  IPv6 3014378      0t0  TCP ip6-localhost:43190->ip6-localhost:http-alt (ESTABLISHED)
chrome  3182 churlin   49u  IPv4 3006192      0t0  TCP localhost:53028->localhost:http-alt (ESTABLISHED)

but ultimately nothing shows up. I've attached the log of docker-compose up. I'm using Ubuntu 18.04, docker version is 18.09.5, build e8ff056, docker-compose version is 1.17.1, build unknown

Anyone ? This is a bummer to evaluate concourse :-(

🤷‍♂️ I can only guess the root cause. We have a bunch of engineers using Docker Compose all day and haven't run into this. Wild guess: corporate firewall getting in the way? Maybe try localhost:8080 instead?

You'd probably get more responses by asking in the forums.

Retried after reading your comment and both 127.0.0.1:8080 and localhost:8080 are working.. Dang I had tried numerous times before creating the issue :-/ I must have missed something in the first place.. Sorry for the noise. I'll now evaluate moving from buildbot to concourse :-)

Haha, no problem!
