Docker compose not creating db

Posted December 2, 2019

Hi,

I am following this tutorial: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-laravel-nginx-and-mysql-with-docker-compose

I have set these vars in the docker-compose.yml

 MYSQL_DATABASE: laravel
 MYSQL_USER: laraveluser
 MYSQL_PASSWORD: laraveldbpassword
 MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: root

But this is my public IP: http://178.62.89.151/

It is saying the database doesn’t exist, I have tried docker stop and rm on all containers then build, and docker-compose up -d but no joy?
