I am new with elasticsearch so pardon me if my question is stupid. I am try to run it with docker. After i pulled elasticsearch image from docker hub, i ran it with command:

docker run -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 --name=ES elasticsearch

But when i opened http://192.168.99.100:9200 (my docker-machine ip is 192.168.99.100) the page is not available.

I tried to change my elasticsearch.yml like below:

network.publish_host: 192.168.99.100

but it doesn't work. Anyone help me out?

Thanks.

I try pass the network.publish_host setting directly on the command line with --network.publish_host=192.168.99.100 (as @Val mentioned) but it still not working. Here the log:

$ docker run -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 --name=ES elasticsearch  --network.publish_host=192.168.99.100

Since the OP is using Mac, the port 9200 needs to be port forwarded (with boot2docker or with docker machine) at the VM (VirtualBox) level.

VBoxManage controlvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "tcp-port9200 ,tcp,,9200,,9200"
VBoxManage controlvm "boot2docker-vm" --natpf1 "udp-port9200 ,udp,,9200,,$9200

(controlvm if the VM is running, modifyvm is the VM is stopped)
