You may need to publish the ports your HAProxy is listening on to the host by specifying the -p option, for example -p 8080:80 to publish port 8080 from the container host to port 80 in the container. Make sure the port you're using is free.

Make sure the port you're using is free.
**Note:** the 2.4+ versions of the container will run as `USER haproxy` by default (hence the `--sysctl net.ipv4.ip_unprivileged_port_start=0` above), but older versions still default to `root` for compatibility reasons; use `--user haproxy` (or any other UID) if you want to run as non-root in older versions.

Note that your host's `/path/to/etc/haproxy` folder should be populated with a file named `haproxy.cfg`. If this configuration file refers to any other files within that folder then you should ensure that they also exist (e.g. template files such as `400.http`, `404.http`, and so forth). However, many minimal configurations do not require any supporting files. Note that your host's `/path/to/etc/haproxy` folder should be populated with a file named `haproxy.cfg`.

The entrypoint script in the image checks for running the command `haproxy` and replaces it with `haproxy-systemd-wrapper` from HAProxy upstream which takes care of signal handling to do the graceful reload. Under the hood this uses the `-sf` option of `haproxy` so "there are two small windows of a few milliseconds each where it is possible that a few connection failures will be noticed during high loads" (see [Stopping and restarting HAProxy](http://www.haproxy.org/download/1.7/doc/management.txt)).
