Step 6 — Wait until the container is up
Check that the container is running:
docker compose ps
It should show the app on port 2000.
If it keeps restarting, look at the logs:
docker compose logs
A common problem is MongoDB. If Mongo is not running, or port 27017 is busy, the app exits.
If port 2000 is already in use, change the port in docker-compose.yml.
