Unable to run flyway migration

[prashanthparsi]

I have a requirement to run the flyway migrations during docker run as soon as the postgres docker container is run.

So, based on my analysis on the docker-entrypoint.sh, it sounds like the file names should be in a certain order as they follow sequence to run. I created a_initial_setup.sql and init_db.sh so that I can create a database and the users and do the grants. So, the database is created correctly and the logs shows that server is running, but when I am trying to connect using localhost on port 5432 it doesn't work. I get below errors -

waiting for server to start....2022-10-14 01:59:58.400 UTC [123] LOG: starting PostgreSQL 12.12 (Debian 12.12-1.pgdg110+1) on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (Debian 10.2.1-6) 10.2.1 20210110, 64-bit 2022-10-14 01:59:58.403 UTC [123] LOG: listening on Unix socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432" 2022-10-14 01:59:58.492 UTC [127] LOG: database system was shut down at 2022-10-14 01:59:57 UTC 2022-10-14 01:59:58.513 UTC [123] LOG: database system is ready to accept connections done server started CREATE DATABASE

Sample flyway migration code -

RUN_MIGRATIONS="${RUN_MIGRATIONS:-true}"
  DB_URL="jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/<<database_name>>"

if [ "$RUN_MIGRATIONS" == "true" ]; then
        echo "running migrations ..."
        ${FLYWAY_EXE} -user=<<username>> -password=<<password>> -url=$DB_URL -locations="filesystem:$MIGRATIONS_LOCATION" migrate
fi

Does the server not running on port 5432 or it runs on random port? How do I over come this error? Critical for the work I am doing now. Any thoughts are appreciated.

... but when I am trying to connect using localhost on port 5432 it doesn't work. DB_URL="jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/<<database_name>>"

imho: see the doc in https://hub.docker.com/_/postgres

• in the end of the "Initialization scripts" parts :
  • "... Also, as of docker-library/postgres#440, the temporary daemon started for these initialization scripts listens only on the Unix socket, so any psql usage should drop the hostname portion (see docker-library/postgres#474 (comment) for example)."

so try without the "localhost".

Thanks @ImreSamu for the pointers. I followed the exact pattern from the #474 issue and still getting unknown host exception.

RUN_MIGRATIONS="${RUN_MIGRATIONS:-true}"
  DB_URL="jdbc:postgresql://@:5432/<<database>>"

#psql -v ON_ERROR_STOP=1 --username "$POSTGRES_USER" <<-EOSQL
#    CREATE DATABASE $DB_NAME;
#EOSQL
echo "coming..."
if [ "$RUN_MIGRATIONS" == "true" ]; then
        echo "running migrations ..."
        ${FLYWAY_EXE} -user=<<user>> -password=<<password>> -url=$DB_URL -locations="filesystem:$MIGRATIONS_LOCATION" migrate
fi

Any thoughts? May be this doesn't work for jdbc drivers? Is this a bug in the image?

Unable to obtain connection from database (jdbc:postgresql://@:5432/<<db>>) for user '<<user>>'

Are the <<user>> and <<db>> verbatim or are they sanitized like that?

[prashanthparsi]

I sanitized them. I found a work around from other posts and trying that. Will keep you posted.
