Answer

  1. Are you sure you are running php -m on the docker container and not your host?(quite common mistake)

  2. In your symfony(fpm) docker container 127.0.0.1 and localhost resolve to the container itself, not your host machine which has the db exposed on port 3309. Try changing your DATABASE_URL to mysql://root:root@myApp-back-db:3306. Also, you can try setting url to host.docker.internal if you are on mac or windows.

  3. Create a docker file for fpm and install mysql ext:

docker-composer:

myApp-back-fpm:
    build:
        context: .
    working_dir: /var/www/html
    volumes:
      - type: bind
        source: myApp-back
        target: /var/www/html

Dockerfile:

FROM php:7.4-fpm

RUN docker-php-ext-install pdo pdo_mysql;
