Having ip mappings in /etc/hosts is often a remedy for such issues. Maybe it can help.

The topology works great until I try to make a Bolt that tries to either connect to the internet (via a restful API) or localhost (MongoDB) -- Storm is not able to connect to either. Does anyone know why this might happen? Is Kafka interfering somehow? For what it's worth, I'm running Kafka and Storm inside a Docker container that is itself run inside a server protected by a proxy server with a strong firewall. What makes this tough to debug is that I'm able to connect to localhost and I'm also able to run the restful API inside the Docker container and firewall when I'm not using Storm. So I'm guessing either Kafka or Storm is causing the issue. When Storm runs, is the process handed off to root? I have proxy settings that are only configured for myself (not root), so it’s possible that if the Storm process is handed off to some ID other than my own then my proxy settings would no longer apply, although this shouldn’t affect a connection to localhost. Below is my python Bolt code if anyone is interested. import storm import urllib2 class TestBolt(storm.BasicBolt): def process(self, tup): throw_away_input = str(tup.values[0]).strip() response = urllib2.urlopen('http://python.org/') html = response.read() storm.emit([html]) TestBolt().run() Thanks, Ryan Ryan Zotti Software Engineer, Enterprise Data Services 804.393.1656<tel:804.393.1656> ryan.zo...@capitalone.com<mailto:ryan.zo...@capitalone.com> [cid:image001.jpg@01CFA4FA.31511390] ________________________________ The information contained in this e-mail is confidential and/or proprietary to Capital One and/or its affiliates.
