Command failed docker-compose-CodePudding

I've just started using Docker on an already existing project (it runs into a Docker container). I don't have a lot of Docker background - I've been using it only from the GUI, by pressing the "play" button.

Now I have a project which runs into a container, and I'm having trouble starting it.

I'm getting this error:

Here's my docker-compose.yml (if it helps)

version: '3.7'

services:
  redis:
    //data

  postgres:
    //data

  django:
    //data

volumes:
  db-data:

Where can this error come from and how can I fix it?

Thanks.

CodePudding user response：

Try to check your docker version. then select the appropriate compactibility version from HERE then try this for official HERE or you can try this one for template compose file HERE

Make sure your docker is propery installed on your local machine.

CodePudding user response：

It looks like you're trying to VS Code devcontainers. The error output is not super helpful here.

docker-compose seems to not like the format of your docker-compose.dev.yml file because it errors out on:

docker-compose -f c:\Users\Octavian\Desktop\django-analyzer\docker-compose.dev.yml config

Try running that command at your command line and it should give you better info on why your docker-compose.dev.yml is invalid.
