FAQs

No internet access over HTTPS (port 443) on Docker containers with custom network

When creating a new Docker network and starting a fresh container, you might encounter issues with HTTPS requests not receiving a response. HTTP requests, however, work as expected.

This issue is likely caused by a wrong MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) setting. To fix the problem, create a new network and specify the MTU value as 1440:

language: 

bash

copy code

copied successfully

docker network create mynetwork --opt "com.docker.network.driver.mtu=1440"

For more discussions related to MTU value causing problems, refer to the Gitpod Discord.
