Http On Google Container Engine

7/3/2015

Im stuck on the Google Container Engine. Any tutorial I try out I am never able to connect through a docker container on http.

As a concrete example the wordpress tutorial: https://cloud.google.com/container-engine/docs/tutorials/hello-wordpress

I literally follow every step (nothing more, nothing less). Then i try to connect through the browser (chrome) and it says "connection timed out" the ip is returning my pings.

So what step I am missing here? Is the tutorial up to date?

If your connection is timing out, it sounds like you haven't put the correct firewall rules in place. You can verify this by sshing into your VM and running curl against the wordpress service. If it works using curl but doesn't work from your browser, then the firewall is blocking your requests.
