Research direction

Start at MySqlTest line 28, or the later MySqlIT equivalent, and inspect how the MySQL container image is selected. Run the Lesson 125 integration test with the project’s container runtime; done means the MySQL container starts and the test connects successfully.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

problem running the test, I found that the mysql container could not be connected to with the output showing errors, including "Connection refused: getsockopt"
mysql 9.3.0 was being pulled which seems to have a problem

mysql 9.1.0 in lecture currently

source: github testcontainers-java issue 10184
The solution was to specify mysql 8 rather than 9. Literally one character change in MySqlTest (later MySqlIT) line 28 :)
Better yet use "mysql:lts"

I was using podman (running on WSL2 in my case) rather than Docker
