Hi ronna (https://github.com/ronna/),

Thank you for your comment. This GitHub repo is not actively monitored. If you need help, please check previously asked questions in the WA Business API Developer Community, or raise a Direct support ticket. Meanwhile, we are happy to continue with less time-sensitive discussions in GitHub.

Thanks for your understanding!

Same here. So far Direct Support is only telling us it is our fault but it really is a container issue 😭

[zerow06]

Same issue here using WA_API_VERSION=2.59.2 and latest version of docker-compose file with Docker Desktop 4.35.1 (173168)

[bmm-alc]

same here
ubuntu 20.04
docker: 24.0.7-0ubuntu2~20.04.1
compose: 2.24.6+ds1-0ubuntu1~20.04.1

I also opened a ticket on meta developer site wishing that help fixing the issue https://developers.facebook.com/community/threads/1090523782334534/?post_id=1090523785667867

Hi,

The solution is to remove the links from the Docker compose YML:

Hi @RonnieRocket147
I already did that but it fails with another problem, name resolution does not work anymore when I use this commit

Perhaps I should open a separate issue for this

[RonnieRocket147]

I had the same problem, try removing the lines

network_mode: bridge

[bmm-alc]

I had the same problem, try removing the lines

network_mode: bridge

Yes I think this is because the default network bridge does not provide name resolution as stated in https://docs.docker.com/engine/network/drivers/bridge/#differences-between-user-defined-bridges-and-the-default-bridge
But I don't like the idea of patching file provided in the repo, and I did not find a way to patch using an override file.
If you have suggestion I'll take it

[Patrickl-Commbox]

There is any update\solution on this issue?
I also removed the links , and the error dissapear , but the coreapp container comes up with 0/tcp in the ports, even there are port mapping of 6250-6253 in the template yml.
