Solution 1
You can try with docker.for.mac.localhost
Solution 2
Just putting @danwild comment in answer form for more visibility.
You can now access localhost from within the container using host.docker.internal
. See the docs

I am using latest Docker for mac. I am running into this strange issue. I can access my webapp via http://127.0.0.1/ but not http://localhost/ however I can access https://localhost/ (self signed cert). So, I am not sure what is wrong here.
This is my docker compose.
version: "3" services: php: build: context: . container_name: php volumes: - .:/var/www/html - conf:/etc/apache2/sites-enabled ports: - "80:80" - "443:443"
and this is my Apache config
<VirtualHost _default_:80> ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost DocumentRoot /var/www/html <Directory /var/www/html> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All Require all granted </Directory> ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined </VirtualHost> <IfModule mod_ssl.c> <VirtualHost _default_:443> DocumentRoot /var/www/html <Directory /var/www/html> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All Require all granted </Directory> SSLEngine on SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/certs/localhost.crt SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/certs/localhost.key <FilesMatch "\.(cgi|shtml|phtml|php)$"> SSLOptions +StdEnvVars </FilesMatch> <Directory /usr/lib/cgi-bin> SSLOptions +StdEnvVars </Directory> BrowserMatch "MSIE [2-6]" \ nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \ downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0 BrowserMatch "MSIE [17-9]" ssl-unclean-shutdown ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined </VirtualHost> </IfModule>
