If you have connection problems between the linked containers, source may be somewhere else. I had a project with lots of containers where many of them were failing to connect to rabbitmq on boot2docker. It was fine on Linux. I figured out when I removed the volumes, they worked. After a while, I realized the problem was that rabbitmq was not starting with volumes that's why I couldn't connect. Only root user had access to the volumes. I was not the root. This was a bug. There does not seem to be a proper solution yet.
Problematic : boot2docker: Docker v1.4.1 fig 1.0.1
Working Fine: Linux: Docker v1.4.0 fig 1.0.1
I've set up a sample fig file below:
test: image: dockerfile/python links: - rabbitmq
rabbitmq: image: dockerfile/rabbitmq expose: - "5672" - "15672" volumes:
- ./volumes/rabbitmq-log:/data/log
- ./volumes/rabbitmq-data:/data/mnesia
When I run a ping to the linked rabbitmq (or anything else), it fails to reach the host. On Linux, it's working fine. On boot2docker, it's not working:
$ fig run test ping rabbitmq
Starting myproj_rabbitmq_1...
PING rabbitmq (172.17.1.32) 56(84) bytes of data.

When I removed volumes section, it worked.
