Story

I am new to docker. While reading some docs I bumped into this docker image and followed its quick database system setup example.

Example stack.yml for adminer.

I then run docker stack deploy -c stack.yml adminer and get the following screen served on localhost:8080:

Problem

The docs stop right there. And I had no luck connecting to MySQL in this docker setup. When trying any addresses (0.0.0.0, 127.0.0.1, localhost) in Server field I get SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused.

Thoughts

The example code has the following comment:

# Use root/example as user/password credentials

So I fill root and example as user and password respectively. But if the given message would mean I have the wrong credentials, which would be the right password for root user?

Would any of you people spot problems on the supplied docs?

Could any host system issues be interfering with my setup?

Environment

Windows 10 Pro (up to date)
Docker for Windows
PowerShell

What other information can I give you?

Using that stack the database server would be `db`. – Shawn C. Jan 19 '18 at 15:57
windows is really not the platform to run docker on... Your problem could be caused by a number of things. First, try publishing your `3306` port. – Kevin Kopf Jan 19 '18 at 21:07
@AlexKarshin `ports: - 3306:3306` on **db**? – Guill Jan 22 '18 at 18:05
@ShawnC. When putting `db` as server I get parsing error. – Guill Jan 22 '18 at 20:34
