Docker error Can't reach database server at localhost:5432

I'm using docker compose and my server api depends on a postgres server in the same container. During the build I run

prisma migrate deploy

prisma migrate deploy

and get this error. I also tried replacing localhost with 0.0.0.0 and db (my database's docker service name) but it does not work. Strangely from my dev machine I'm able to run

prisma migrate dev --name init

prisma migrate dev --name init

without issue using this same DATABASE_URL variable.

DATABASE_URL="postgresql://freeauth:freeauth@localhost:5432/freeauth?schema=public"

DATABASE_URL="postgresql://freeauth:freeauth@localhost:5432/freeauth?schema=public"

Hi @jsoneaday 👋 Can you please share the content of your docker-compose.yml file?

I moved my prisma code from the docker run command into cmd and it worked. Thank you
