Unable to access shiny server in docker container

I have a Dockerized R Shiny app on Google Cloud VM. It was running well but from yesterday I am not able to access the shiny server. I have checked the docker logs and it gives me below message:

[2019-03-13T14:56:11.496] [INFO] shiny-server - Shiny Server v1.5.7.890 (Node.js v8.10.0)
[2019-03-13T14:56:11.498] [INFO] shiny-server - Using config file "/etc/shiny-server/shiny-server.conf"
[2019-03-13T14:56:11.559] [WARN] shiny-server - Running as root unnecessarily is a security risk! You could be running more securely as non-root.
[2019-03-13T14:56:11.562] [INFO] shiny-server - Starting listener on 0.0.0.0:3838

So, does it means the shiny server is running? If YES then why I am not able to access it from a browser (on the browser it gives me an error "ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED")?

Note: The port 3838 (default shiny server port) is whitelisted from VM.

It might be something wrong with your shiny-server.conf file because that shouldn't be the IP address, could you share the content of your config file?
