I have the following problem:
Trying to deploy an application on ECS. It comprises of multiple ECS services that use Service Connect to talk to each other.
The "AppService" is composed of 2 containers (nginx + php), I normally make this work by adding an app link to nginx the problem is that because of ServiceConnect the nginx container fails to start with error message:
CannotCreateContainerError: Error response from daemon: conflicting options: container type network can't be used with links. This would result in undefined behavior
The ECS services are running on an EC2 cluster, so as far as I understand awsvpc network mode is not a solution, so I think I'm stuck with bridge mode.
I'm looking for a way to keep using Service Connect and be able to make the nginx talk to app at the same time.
Thank you.
After further documentation, what I was trying to achieve is not possible and I had to switch to NetworkMode: awsvpc and have the containers talk to each other through localhost.
