unable to find tcp host for catalog.services

[sweetodev]

From the examples/nginx.md at https://github.com/hashicorp/consul-template/blob/master/examples/nginx.md using alpine version v0.22.0 (005b42eb)

I've given a custom host -consul-addr "consul:8500" but it's unable to reach

Hey @sweetodev, thanks for the interest and sorry for the delay in reply.

I'm not sure what the problem is exactly other than it looks like a DNS issue (failed lookup). Have you tried asking in one of the community support channels? You might have better luck there as I don't regularly run a docker setup like that and am not sure when I'll have time (it will be a while).

I'll leave this open here for now in case someone sees it and has an idea.
