Docker compose exec after docker compose run with service ports

I have a docker compose file which works fine with these commands:

docker-compose up
docker-compose exec web /bin/bash

The issue I have is that when I want to start the container with --service-ports I can't connect to the container anymore with docker-compose.

docker-compose run --service-ports web
docker-compose exec web /bin/bash
ERROR: No container found for web_1

I also tried:

docker-compose run --service-ports --name container_web --rm web
docker-compose exec web /bin/bash
ERROR: No container found for web_1
# this works
docker exec -it container_web /bin/bash
root@b09618ad2840:/code/app#

Any help will be very much appreciated.
Thanks

According to the documentation, docker-compose run is used to "Run a one-off command on a service".

For this reason you cannot split your actions in run + exec.

This will work:

docker-compose run --service-ports web /bin/bash

You should use docker-compose up to start your services instead of docker-compose run.
