I ran into this same issue. You’ll need to configure your docker-compose.yaml to include the following command arguments to your dapr sidecar:

"--placement-host-address", "host.docker.internal:6050"

Take a look at your placement instance running in Docker Desktop to confirm the port number there.

You’ll also need to update your pubsub and statestore components’ yaml files to point to host.docker.internal instead of localhost.

Example:

apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
kind: Component
metadata:
  name: pubsub
spec:
  type: pubsub.redis
  version: v1
  metadata:
  - name: redisHost
    value: host.docker.internal:6379
  - name: redisPassword
    value: ""

apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
kind: Component
metadata:
  name: statestore
spec:
  type: state.redis
  version: v1
  metadata:
  - name: redisHost
    value: host.docker.internal:6379
  - name: redisPassword
    value: ""
  - name: actorStateStore
    value: "true"

This will correctly configure your docker compose managed instances to connect to your default dapr placement and redis instances created using dapr init on your dev machine.

The alternative is to spin up a dapr placement and redis instance inside your docker compose stack. The error is a bit misleading. The real issue is daprd is not able to communicate with either service inside the docker compose stack because it’s a different network.

@Namohar - Are you sure that your component was scoped to the appropriate apps? And did you see the next log line that I asked for?
