Question

I have to make LAravel app and to deliver a Dockerfile ,but I\'m really stuck with this. Before that I had a nightmare wile installing laravel on m

Answer 1

I had the same problem and

sudo netstat -nlpt |grep 3306

showed me the PID and which service it was started by (mysgld). Whenever I tried to kill the PID then it was started again. But the problem was fixed when I stopped the service by

sudo service mysql stop

Notice that you will have to use mysql and not mysqld.

I hope that this will do it for you - I was able to run docker-compose up without any problems

Answer 2

On Ubuntu, running this command will stop your mysql from running for your docker container to work:

sudo service mysql stop  

Then, if your apache2 is running, you need to stop the service especially when you want to work with nginx:

sudo service apache2 stop

Then, you can run your docker-compose up -d ... command

Answer 3

Try to kill all the processes using the port 3306:

sudo kill `sudo lsof -t -i:3306`

Then, run your docker containers:

sudo docker-compose up
