Microgateway is not starting in docker
Hi,
I have created a couple fo microgateways and I am now in the process to experiment on how to create a docker image of a microgateway.
I followed the following article:
https://apigee.com/about/blog/api-technology/running-apigee-edge-microgateway-docker-container and all the steps is work as suggested.
After I have executed the "docker run --env-file ./<org>-<env>-env.list -p 8000:8000 -v <directory containing configuration>:/root/.edgemicro -d -t ndietz/emgw" command I get a long key back. So I assume the container was built successfully.
When I execute the CURL command to the the docker IP then I get the following response:
curl: (7) Failed connect to 172.17.0.1:8000; Connection refused
I then checked with netstat and there is nothing running on port 8000 and checked in docker with "docker ps -a", the container was built: however there is no port listed to the container. But the "npm start" command is present.
Please advise on how do I troubleshoot this? To start the edgemicro gateway with the key and secret is working perfectly.

That is a very old article. Please refer to the steps here: https://github.com/apigee-internal/microgateway/tree/master/kubernetes/docker/edgemicro
If you want to run Microgateway on Kubernetes, please see this:

Hi @srinandans
Thank you for the information. I have followed the steps listed in the kubernetes instructions. With the following step I assume it should be: helloword-service and not hellworld-service
When execute the following command I get the "helloword" service listed in the list, Is this correct?
The following steps has a missing H after the -
But thank you for good guidelines, I finally got it working. I have tried the Docker one as well but when I execute step3 I am getting the following issue:
docker: invalid reference format: repository name must be lowercase.
Thank you @Etienne Dippenaar. Can you please give me the locations to the typo?
For step 3, can you please paste the exact command here?
Hi,
I have added the locations into my original reply but I see it didn't pull through, sorry about that
When you deploy an application in Edgemicro as a Service:
kubectl apply -f samples/helloworld/hellworld-service.yamlWhen you call an API in the verification steps for Edgemicro as a Service:
curl - 'x-api-key:your-edge-api-key' $GATEWAY_IP:80/hello/echo;echoDocker Command: After I have rerun the same command as yesterday it is now working, not sure why that will happen but the docker is now built, thanks for the great article.
Hi @srinandans
In your article you say the Openshift part is coming soon. Have you done anything wrt deploying this gateway in Openshift?
