Laravel Sail problem "no configuration file provided: not found"

Question

trying to launch a laravel project with sail:

~/Documents/__laravel_projects/testApp$ ./vendor/bin/sail up

I get this error message:

no configuration file provided: not found

versions: Ubuntu 22.04, Laravel Framework 9.20.0, Docker Desktop 4.10.1

Does anyone know how to fix the problem.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Problem solved thanks to @signorpiero ref.

My solution: From project path execute these two instructions:

1. php artisan sail:install

   ~/Documents/__laravel_projects/testApp$ php artisan sail:install
   ...
   

2. ./vendor/bin/sail up:

   ~/Documents/__laravel_projects/testApp$ ./vendor/bin/sail up
   ...
   [+] Running 12/13

Add docker-compose.yml into your root directory, the content will be like below:
