I'm experimenting with CF in my local bosh-lite setup. The apps that I deploy into if work well. I am now trying to follow the steps here https://github.com/cf-platform-eng/cf-community-workshop/blob/master/demos/service-broker-lab.adoc to try out the custom service broker setup.
The https://github.com/mstine/haash-broker application starts and is running fine:
$ cf apps
name requested state instances memory disk urls
haash-broker started 1/1 768M 1G haash-broker.vbox.mojito, haash-broker.192.168.50.6.xip.io
I can access it from my host machine browser well: http://haash-broker.192.168.50.6.xip.io/v2/catalog
But when I execute the
cf create-service-broker haash-broker warreng natedogg http://haash-broker.192.168.50.6.xip.io
I get
$ cf create-service-broker haash-broker warreng natedogg http://haash-broker.192.168.50.6.xip.io
Creating service broker haash-broker as admin...
FAILED
Server error, status code: 502, error code: 10001, message: The service broker could not be reached: http://haash-broker.192.168.50.6.xip.io/v2/catalog
When I log in into the CC VM:
$ bosh -e vbox -f cf ssh api/eb4cec99-bab1-4513-a980-fb92775ac2d8
I can ping the hostname:
api/eb4cec99-bab1-4513-a980-fb92775ac2d8:~$ sudo ping haash-broker.192.168.50.6.xip.io

The firewall permits everything on that VM (sudo iptables -L
).
The hostname gets resolved properly. The ping works and the 80 port is open on the target IP, since I can reach it from my host browser.
How can that be that the wget doesn't work in such situation?
This also seems to be the reason for me failing to create a service broker cf create-service-broker
UPDATE
I've managed to to execute the cf create-service-broker command with URL of an nginx reverse proxy running outside of my bosh-lite environment. The proxy redirects to the same initial URL http://haash-broker.192.168.50.6.xip.io and the command succeeds in this way. But the subsequent
cf create-service-broker haash-broker warreng natedogg http://haash-broker.192.168.50.1.xip.io:9999
cf enable-service-access haash
cf create-service HaaSh basic my-hash
(where haash-broker.192.168.50.1.xip.io:9999 is my nginx proxy) fails with
Server error, status code: 502, error code: 10001, message: The service broker rejected the request to http://haash-broker.192.168.50.1.xip.io:9999/v2/service_instances/4ef19154-d238-4cb3-8003-803fba53af3f?accepts_incomplete=true. Status Code: 400 Bad Request, Body: {"timestamp":1523008856993,"error":"Bad Request","status":400,"message":""}
I can see in both nginx and broker app logs that the the request reaches the broker and it answers with 400. Debugging now why.
