Træfik not working with file configuration

Traefik Traefik v1
1

Hi Community

I am new to træfik and having some issues while using file configuration in my toml file

My issue is that I can hit http://ngnx.traefik.docker.localhost:8080/ and it works fine but when I try to hit
http://test.localhost:8080/, it times out with the exception - Gateway timeout
Down.com is accessible from browser.
Could you please suggest me, what I am doing wrong. Both docker compose and toml file contents are written below

docker-compose.yml file

version: "3"

services:
  reverse-proxy:
    image: traefik
    ports:
      - "8080:80"
      - "8081:8081"
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
      - ~/traefik/traefik.toml:/etc/traefik/traefik.toml
  ngnx:
    image: nginx
    ports:
      - "8083:80" 

networks:
  default:
    external:
      name: proxy

traefik.toml file

defaultEntryPoints = ["http"]

[entryPoints]
  [entryPoints.dashboard]
    address = ":8081"
  [entryPoints.http]
    address = ":80"

[api]
entrypoint="dashboard"


[web]
address = ":80"

[docker]
domain = "docker.localhost"
watch = true
network = "proxy"

[file]

[backends]
  [backends.backend1]
    [backends.backend1.servers]
      [backends.backend1.servers.server0]
      url = "http://down.com"
      weight = 10


[frontends]
  [frontends.frontend1]
  entrypoints = ["http"]
  backend = "backend1"
  passHostHeader = true
    [frontends.frontend1.routes]
      [frontends.frontend1.routes.route0]
      rule = "Host: test.localhost"

Hello @usmanfast,

Can you try running the alpine version of the traefik image: traefik:v1.7.12-alpine and then run a shell in the container?

Install curl:

apk add curl

Then curl your backend URL:
curl -v -H "Host: test.localhost" http://down.com

And share what the result is?
