I have a project with a mysql database in a container. I use docker-compose to set my project up. And I want to run the mysql command to inspect te database.
So I did, and get:
docker-compose run --rm database mysql
Creating myproject_database_run ... done
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
However when I tried this it works:
docker exec -it myproject_database_1 mysql
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
Can anybody explain me this?
My docker-compose file:
version: "3.7"
services:
database:
image: mysql
command: --default-authentication-plugin=mysql_native_password
restart: always
ports:
- "127.0.0.1:3306:3306"

docker-compose run
creates a new container. That's perfectly normal, but if your mysql
client is configured to connect via a Unix socket, the new container will have a new filesystem and won't be able to see the main database container's /var/run
directory.
When you use docker-compose run
, you need to specify a TCP connection, using the setup described in Networking in Compose in the Docker documentation. For example,
docker-compose run --rm database \
mysql -h mysql
Since you publish ports:
out of the container, you should be able to reach it from the host, without Docker. The trick here is that the mysql
command-line client interprets localhost
as a magic term to use a Unix socket and not a normal host name, so you need to specifically use the IP address 127.0.0.1 instead.
# From the same host, without anything Docker-specific
mysql -h 127.0.0.1

Try adding MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD
in the environment.
environment:
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: root
