Docker: could not create IPv6 socket for address "::": Address family not supported by protocol - postgresql

I'm trying to start a postgres server using docker but it fails as soon as it starts. I believe it is something in the container and not on the host machine but I cannot find a configuration to use ipv4

It was working the day before, nothing changed on the network.
Does anyone know what is the solution can be?
thanks.

Docker: Adminer backend for PostgrSQL database times out

I'm trying to set up a simple database system using a PostgreSQL Docker container and an Adminer container as a backend. Note this is all running on a RaspberryPi 4.
docker-compose.yml:
services:
postgres:
image: postgres
restart: on-failure
ports:
- 5432:5432
env_file:
- ./.auth_file
volumes:
- db:/var/lib/postgresql/data
adminer:
image: adminer
restart: on-failure
ports:
- 8070:8080
env_file:
- ./.auth_file
depends_on:
- postgres
volumes:
db:
I then run it using docker-compose up:

The last line shows that I tried to access localhost:8070 in the Browser right on the Pi. The page just loads forever and Adminer never returns the page.
Could this have to do with some firewall issues?
Thanks for any help!
Found the solution. This has to do with the Docker Container being unable to fetch the current time from the host, due to some version issues surrounding Docker, Alpine (the base image for Adminer) and libseccomp. This is also evident by the fact that Adminer shows entirely different timestamps than the Postgres-Container in my original post.
The full explanation can be found here: https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Release_Notes_for_Alpine_3.13.0#time64_requirements
After following the steps linked above, the docker-compose.yml should look something like this:
adminer:
image: adminer
...
security_opt:
- seccomp=config/compose/default.json # required to avoid clock_gettime() errors
Replace config/compose/default.json with the relative path to the modified default.json.

Can't connect Go Application to the postgres container in docker-compose

I have been trying to connect my go application to postgresql db using docker-compose.
Here is my Dockerfile for the web server
FROM golang:latest
RUN mkdir /app
COPY . /app
WORKDIR /app
RUN go mod download
EXPOSE 5000
CMD ["go","run","main.go"]
And this is my docker-compose.yml file

services:
db:

restart: always
network_mode: bridge
environment:
POSTGRES_USER: factly
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: qwertyui

ports:
- "5432:5432"
server:
build: .
depends_on:
- db
ports:
- "5000:5000"
But I can't connect to the postgresql db as it gives a connection refused error message from the

I have tried running just the postgres container and connecting it with the Go Application which works perfectly fine but running the Go Application inside a container gives the same error(Which makes me feel the Go web server container couldn't connect outside of it's network).
How can I correct this?
I guess the problem is you are trying to connect to 127.0.0.1 from the go program instead use the hostname of the database container db.

How to use Netcat to check whether postgresql docker container is up

I want to see if docker container with PostgreSQL is ready using Netcat utility.
My entrypoint.sh script seems to be unable to spot the DB up and running.
When I login into docker and run NC in verbose mode I get
DNS fwd/rev mismatch: db != telegram_messages_db_1.telegram_messages_default
What am I doing wrong?
My setup
entrypoint.sh
echo "Waiting for postgres..."
while ! nc -z db 5432; do
sleep 0.1
done
echo "PostgreSQL started"
docker-compose.yaml

Also...
If I run nc -z -v telegram_messages_db_1.telegram_messages_default 5432
I do get a nice response:
telegram_messages_db_1.telegram_messages_default [172.19.0.2] 5432 (postgresql) open
Removing all containers, rebooting and building from scratch solved the issue.
I will leave it here for posterity.
