OS: Centos 7.4 ( a guest on vmware )
Docker version 17.12.0-ce, build c97c6d6
After a successful install, I was able to connect to the web interface and do some basic configuration ( add user, password change, add organization).
After about 20 minutes, the web interface times out (shows an internal server error) and I can no longer log on.
Connectivity is restored after restarting the docker service ( all 4 awx containers - I am using an external DB ). However it disconnects again after
a short while.
Tail of Logs from the awx_web container:
File “/var/lib/awx/venv/awx/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/db/backends/postgresql/base.py”, line 176, in get_new_connection

django.db.utils.OperationalError: could not translate host name “tower-db-001” to address: Name or service not known

*** no app loaded. going in full dynamic mode ***
I can see the failed resolution of the database name but it connected fine to the database during installation and I was able to logon and make config changes post install.
Also, if I restart the docker service, I can connect again. What changes in DNS after time?
Thanks in advance.
