could not translate host name "postgres" to address:Name or service not known about self-hosted

I'm not sure what you did wrong, but the error itself is pretty obvious. It can't route the hostname "postgres" to an IP address.

windows bug, do not use volumes

    # volumes:
    #   - ./data/sentry:/var/lib/sentry/files

    # volumes:
    #   - ./data/postgres:/var/lib/postgresql/data

This is not confined to Windows. On Mac experiencing the same issue, commenting the volume directives seems to have resolved... don't know where my data is supposed to go now but I guess ill find out. Whoops... same problem on CentOS. @mattrobenolt what are these volumes for, I guess just commenting these out isn't exactly a perm fix..?

I am seeing the same issue on macOS and it still exists after I tried commenting out the volumes

I got the same error while I was setting up a Postgre backend for Airflow

Me too

For me it seems that roll-backing to a previous version of docker-compose made the error to go away:
I was using docker-compose 1.12
I rolled back to docker-compose 1.7, and the error is gone...

If you are working in localhost and getting this error, a small change will help to resolve.,

• In database.yml file, check the value of host whether it is localhost. If not change it to localhost. Then u 'll encounter a migration error like
  " ActiveRecord::PendingMigrationError
  Migrations are pending. To resolve this issue, run:" bin/rails db:migrate RAILS_ENV=development"

-Hence by running the command u'll crack it . Now it 'll work
Happy coding :-)

I’m just gonna lock this because I don’t even know what you’re all trying to fix at this point. Definitely way out of scope for Sentry.
