Installing transcription plugin fails with strange error messages

[lonesomewalker]

Describe the current behavior

This is somewhat not understandable for me, but maybe related to docker.

When installing the official transcription plugin, either by cli or webinterface, the following errors occur:

root@peertube:/opt/peertube# docker compose exec -u peertube peertube npm run plugin:install -- --npm-name peertube-plugin-transcription

> peertube@6.0.3 plugin:install
> node ./dist/scripts/plugin/install.js --npm-name peertube-plugin-transcription

Looking good, right? Nope :-(

  }
}

Looks like that the plugin is not known? Even after a restart of the docker container, i get:

error[8.4.2024, 15:15:05] Cannot register plugin transcription, skipping.
{
  "err": {
    "stack": "Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.1.1:443\n    at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (node:net:1555:16)",
    "message": "connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.1.1:443",
    "errno": -111,
    "code": "ECONNREFUSED",
    "syscall": "connect",
    "address": "127.0.1.1",
    "port": 443
  }
}

So, did i miss something?

Thank you :-)

Steps to reproduce

1. docker compose exec -u peertube peertube npm run plugin:install -- --npm-name peertube-plugin-transcription
2. docker compose down
3. docker compose up -d

Describe the expected behavior

After the installation no errors should be shown :-) Also configuration options should be available.

Additional information

• PeerTube instance:

  • Version: latest docker
  • NodeJS version: docker

Okay, nevermind... For all the other idiots like me, who use Ubuntu: edit your /etc/hosts file and check for proper ip to hostname Ubuntu writes 127.0.1.1 (and i was wondering why the docker would connect to that ip...)

After changing that, EVERYTHING is working now.
