Replaced only my passwords with “pass” for this reply. Everything else is just as it is here

In the case anyone else is stuck... I found the issue. I don't use IPv6. This is explicitly added in the default sites config.

docker exec into your container then go to /config/nginx/site-confs and edit the "default.conf" file. Either remove the lines under "listen 80 ..." and "listen 443 ..." that contain the "[::]:80" and "[::]:443" or add the following to the line: listen [::]:80 ipv6only=on default_server;

Reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14972792/nginx-nginx-emerg-bind-to-80-failed-98-address-already-in-use `[::]:80 is a ipv6 address.

This error can be caused if you have a nginx configuration that is listening on port 80 and also on port [::]:80.

I had the following in my default sites-available file:

listen 80; listen [::]:80 default_server; You can fix this by adding ipv6only=on to the [::]:80 like this:

listen 80; listen [::]:80 ipv6only=on default_server;`

[alsoszaa]

Creator of the dockerfile should not assume all users use IPv6.

Creator of the dockerfile should not assume all users use IPv6.

We don't. In fact most of the team members don't use ipv6. I believe this issue you're facing only affects people who explicitly disable ipv6 on their os. You really don't need to.

[j0nnymoe]

We have both configurations in our nginx so our containers are usable in both environments. I assume this is only failing because you've specifically disabled ipv6 on your host.

[drizuid]

closing this as OP was explicitly disabling an entire protocol for no reason which caused the issue.

For what it's worth... it was that IPV6 was disabled systemwide fore me - Everything went back to normal after I re-enabled it

we know, thats why i said disabling the entire protocol stack, against any common judgement, was the cause just above your post...
