In this running http://0.0.0.0:8080 is not working enter image description here

I tried running it in windows-subsystem-linux using bash and in ubuntu by downloading $ wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb $ sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb in ubuntu and tried to open the $ xdg-open http://0.0.0.0:8080 through ubuntu terminal in windows subsystem and tried to run docker-container also after failure but still it didn't work.

Solution

  • Use http://localhost:8080/ instead of http://0.0.0.0:8080/.

    And I can't believe how simple the answer can be, and I found this answer nowhere; just a mere coincidence that I was watching a YouTube tutorial on running airflow using docker, and the guy used http://localhost:8080/ instead of http://0.0.0.0:8080/ without any reason. Then I realized what the problem was. I want the @apache team to look into this because this simple thing took a whole day to figure out. I know it's very rear, but it's real. enter image description here
