Hyperledger Fabric peer container not coming up

Question

Error:Get http://couchdb0:5984/: dial tcp 172.18.0.5:5984: connect: connection refused

We are getting the above error in docker log of peer container. As a result peer containers are crashing. I have tried adding dns_search: . in docker-compose.yaml file.

  peer1.org1.example.com:
    container_name: peer1.org1.example.com
    image: hyperledger/fabric-peer:latest
    dns_search: .

I am running RHEL 7 VM.

docker --version
Docker version 1.13.1, build 7f2769b/1.13.1

docker-compose --version
docker-compose version 1.24.1, build 4667896b

Anything else I should look into?
