Deploying Jira with Docker on a Local Host Server

I configured Jira in a Docker container following online instructions. The container runs as expected, yet accessing it via localhost produces an error. What configuration could be missing?

I encountered a similar problem when deploying Jira using Docker. I eventually discovered that the issue was due to incorrect port mapping. Even though the container was running, the host was not forwarding the correct port to the container. Reviewing the Docker run command and ensuring that the host port was explicitly mapped to the container’s exposed port resolved the error when accessing via localhost. I also checked the base URL settings in Jira’s configuration to confirm it matched the expected network address, which helped ensure consistent access.
