I am getting the below error while running docker-compose up in windows server 2016.

docker compose version is docker-compose version 1.27.4, build 40524192

enter image description here Traceback (most recent call last):

Your docker is probably not running on your machine. Just open Docker Desktop on your computer then go the Containers section to see if its running. If it is running, switch it off then go back to your project and run "docker-compose up --build "

I just ran into the exact same symptoms. Turns out Docker wasn't running, and starting Docker solved the problem.
