docker-compose ERROR: .FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:

So when i run the command,

docker-compose -f config/somefile.yml up -d

I get the following error: ERROR: .FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ./config/somefile.yml

I tried giving the full path to the yml file, but the error is the same.

However, when i create a dulicate file with the name docker-compose.yml (by using, script: cp somefile.yml docker-compose.yml) and then i run

docker-compose up

It runs fine. It just cannot run any other file than the default one. Ive searched a lot of places and could not find any solution. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Docker-compose: 1.22 O.S: Ubuntu 14.4

Be sure that you are in good directory. In my case cd to folder with .yml was helpful

The same as the others, my issue was solved by restarting the service using: docker compose restart

I had switched to a different git branch where the deployment files where missing. Later I switched back to my branch including it. Linux has lost the file reference and did not see the files anymore. ls was not showing anything. I had to leave the directory and enter it again. Then docker-compose could find the files again.

For me, restarting both the Docker app and terminal worked.

In my case, I forgot to start Docker itself.

So, check if you've started the Docker application before executing docker-compose.

The file is probably not there.

One way to make sure the tool is not to blame, is to use another basic command like cat.

$ cat ./config/somefile.yml
cat: ./config/somefile.yml: No such file or directory
