Running services as well as kafka and zookeeper in docker containers.

I start the service akhq , which is like a panel for viewing topics and kafka messages.

The akhq service displays created topics and kafka messages. this service connects at kafka:9092

But another adapter service can't connect to kafka. Getting error: dial tcp :9092: connect: connection refused

Even though the adapter service also tries to connect to kafka:9092 , (tried both 127.0.0.1:9092 and localhost:9092) From the console of the adapter service, the address kafka:9092 is successfully pinged.

How can I fix it?

I'm attaching docker-compose.yaml
