Hyperledger-fabric not working with docker swarm - docker-compose

Question

I 'm using the Fabric 1.1 alpha release and trying to set it up using docker swarm. I 'm using docker compose files with docker stack to deploy the containers.
The issue I 'm having is my chaincode listening port which is 7052 hardcoded somewhere in the peer container is not listening on docker swarm.
The same compose file with minor changes work, if I don't use docker swarm.
I 'm not sure if it's something wrong with the peer itself or with docker-swarm.
This is from my peer container, which clearly is not allowing any connections on 7052 port.

But it's listening on 7052 port.

I 'm getting this in my chaincode container logs, when I 'm instantiating the chaincode.

^^Ignore the timestamp and Ip here, the logs are from diff runs. But it happens the same everytime.
Here is my compose section for the peer.

This is really weird, if I remove the deploy section (which is stack specific) everything works.
My n/w is an overlay type n/w with scope of swarm.

Answer 1

#yacovm, thank you so much for the help! The issue was that the chaincode container was not launching on the same network as my peer container and hence it was not able to connect to it. To fix it,
CORE_PEER_CHAINCODELISTENADDRESS=0.0.0.0:7052
Was added to the env of my peer containers. Now it works like a charm
