On MacOS in docker, the controller node on Couchbase Server needs to be renamed to 127.0.0.1.nip.io (or another DNS-resolvable address) before Sync Gateway can connect to it.

Naming a Node | Couchbase Docs are instructions on how to rename the controller node, and you can use hostname=127.0.0.1.nip.io.

I’m not the expert here, but it is trying to connect to port 11207 (the tls kv port), but you only have the non-tls kv port mapped ( -p 11210:11210 )

I tried with hostname 127.0.0.1.nip.io its same error, verified node was changed was able to access with 8091 port

I tried with hostname coubase.local then its not able to discover the node itself

Similarly if connecting with couchbases:// you’ll need to expose the tls ports for other services that SG will be using, like query (e.g. 18091-18094)

Community Edition of Couchbase Server does not support TLS for client connections. You’ll want to have bootstrap config look like

    "bootstrap": {
        "server": "couchbase://cb-server",
        "use_tls_server": false,
        "username": "admin",
        "password": "password"
    },

In addition to using not using TLS in the connection string couchbase:// you want to change the address to the docker container hosting Couchbase Server.
