A suggestion for your dockerfile, merge RUN commands like `RUN command1 && command2` to reduce the layers created and the image size.

Since you are using the tag "Docker-Machine" I'm assuming that you are using Docker Toolbox to manage Docker. The problem is most likely an issue with Virtual Box configuration than your Docker configuration.

When you try pinging your container on port 9001, use the ip `0.0.0.0` instead of `127.0.0.1` or `localhost`. Another way to test would be to get the IP address of the docker-machine, `docker-machine ip`, and use this IP to ping your container (e.g. use `192.168.99.100:9001`.

If you are trying to access the container from another computer you may have to look into a solution like port forwarding as described [here](http://woshub.com/port-forwarding-in-windows/).
