error: Unable to create action and dial tcp 172.17.0.1:3233: connect: connection refused

[thunderZH963]

Environment details:

• ansible/local
• docker-20.10.12
• ubuntu-20.04
• aarch64

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. Deploy openwhisk on local(by ansible): refer to https://github.com/apache/openwhisk/tree/master/ansible.
2. Maybe some modification has been done to make openwhisk suitable to arrch64, but finally, all images were built successfully and related containers were all running.
3. wsk property set --apihost '172.17.0.1:3233'
4. wsk property set --auth cat ansible/files/auth.guest
5. create a simple 'hello.js'
6. wsk action create hello hello.js
7. wsk list

   Outputs

   'wsk action create hello hello.js' shows that,

error: Unable to create action 'hello': Put "http://172.17.0.1:3233/api/v1/namespaces/_/actions/hello?overwrite=false": dial tcp 172.17.0.1:3233: connect: connection refused

'wsk list' shows that,

wsk namespace list
error: Unable to obtain the list of available namespaces: Get "http://172.17.0.1:3233/api/v1/namespaces": dial tcp 172.17.0.1:3233: connect: connection refused

wsk property set --apihost '172.17.0.1', wsk property set --apihost '172.17.0.1:80', wsk property set --apihost '172.17.0.1:443' were all be tried, but failed.

'Docker ps' shows

According to my observation, all related containers are running, especially the 'nginx'. I can't find which part of my deployment has gone wrong and caused the failure of the 'wsk action create'.

I also want to know how I should configure ‘--apihost' for 'wsk' and which port to check.

Generally, the 3233 port is for standalone deployment. I think you need to use 80 or 443.

setting --apihost to local IP directly is ok.

I also meet this problem，could i inquire some questions？I used local ip and 172.17.0.1:3223 are not ok. Is it because I'm not using a docker image？My docker ps is empty。

@immortalsman In this issue, he deployed a standard deployment using ansible but he tried to use an endpoint for standalone deployment. Which type of deployment are you using?

[immortalsman]

Hello，friends！Thank you for your answer.I use ansible.I changed it to the local ip address so there is no error message, but there is a new problem that I haven't solved yet.
