We have got users reporting the same issue: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/40763/docker-compose-using-incorrect-path.html

Thank you for the report, we'll take a look ASAP.

I tried a simple reproduction of this based on your report but I can't seem to be able to reproduce. Here's what I'm doing:

$ tree
.
└── docker
    ├── docker-compose.yml
    └── nginx
        └── nginx.conf

2 directories, 2 files

$ cat docker/docker-compose.yml 
version: '2.1'
services:
  foo:
    image: nginx
    volumes:
      - ./nginx/:/conf
    command: cat /conf/nginx.conf

$ docker-compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml up
Starting docker_foo_1
Attaching to docker_foo_1
foo_1  | foo
foo_1  | bar
docker_foo_1 exited with code 0
$ docker-compose version

docker-py version: 2.2.1
CPython version: 2.7.12

Did I miss something? Are you able to share your docker-compose.yml so I can gather more info?

Thanks.

It appears the error message is related to the build: ./nginx setting:

$ pwd
/home/kk/workspace/docker-compose-fail

$ tree
.
└── docker
    ├── docker-compose.yml
    └── nginx
        └── Dockerfile

2 directories, 2 files

$ cat docker/docker-compose.yml 
version: "2.1"

services:
  nginx:
    image: shd/nginx
    build: ./nginx

$ cat docker/nginx/Dockerfile 
FROM nginx:alpine

$ docker-compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml config
ERROR: build path /home/kk/workspace/docker-compose-fail/nginx either does not exist, is not accessible, or is not a valid URL.

$ docker-compose version

docker-py version: 2.2.1

After removing the build: ./nginx setting and adding a volume mount, I have this:

version: "2.1"

services:
  nginx:
    image: nginx:alpine
    volumes:
      - ./nginx/:/conf

And the error message is gone (the error is not, though):

$ docker-compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml config
networks: {}
services:
  nginx:
    image: nginx:alpine
    volumes:
    - /home/kk/workspace/docker-compose-fail/nginx:/conf:rw
version: '2.1'
volumes: {}

Note the erroneous path translation on the volume mount, which should have been /home/kk/workspace/docker-compose-fail/docker/nginx:/conf:rw, but it is missing the docker/ sub-path.

Thank you for taking a closer look. I have a patch for this in #4713 if you're able to check it out and verify it works for you as well.

@shin- Do you have private bits with the fix somewhere? I'd like to try it out as well.

@dazhao-msft For Windows, you can download the Appveyor artifact here: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/docker/compose/build/master-3146/artifacts

I've verified that the issue reported at https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/40763/docker-compose-using-incorrect-path.html also gets fixed by the change. Thanks for the quick turnaround!

@shin-
Joffrey, do you know when the fix will be integrated in Docker CE for Windows? I checked the latest version 17.05.0-ce-rc1-win8 (11189), and the fix is not there yet.

This issue completely blocks the users from using Docker CE for Windows with Visual Studio. We hope to get this fix in ASAP.

Thanks!

Hi @shin,
Thanks for the fix, after i have downloaded this binary image: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/docker/compose/build/master-3146/artifacts
and copied it to "C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\bin" , it works again for me. I'm using Visual Studio 2017 with docker support and i'm able to debug it again.

Thanks,
Ghodrat

@dazhao-msft this is targeted for 17.05!

The fix from above fixed my problem as well.

I'm using Docker Toolkit for macOS, and I'm seeing this exact problem... but I'm on 17.06? and I'm up to date according to:

Docker 17.06.2-ce-mac27 is currently the newest version available.

$ docker-compose -v
docker-compose version 1.14.0, build c7bdf9e
$ docker -v
Docker version 17.06.2-ce, build cec0b72

What's the status of this issue with macOS?

Cheers

@dlgoodchild The stable branch of Docker 4 Mac doesn't always include the latest version of Compose. While the issue reported here was fixed in 1.13, you might be running into another bug with similar symptoms. Please try with Compose 1.16.1 and open a new issue if you see the problem persist.

Not able to fix the below error. Any help in this matter is really appreciated.

gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
The command '/bin/sh -c curl http://keplerproject.github.io/luarocks/releases/luarocks-2.2.2.tar.gz -O && tar -xzvf luarocks-2.2.2.tar.gz && cd luarocks-2.2.2 && ./configure && make build && make install' returned a non-zero code: 2

I tried to install unp on Mac so that it can support (tat.gz) file. But no luck so far

1. Your question is totally unrelated to this issue, i.e. off-topic!
2. Your command should probably be quoted properly like this (please note where I put the single and double quotes): /bin/sh -c 'curl "http://keplerproject.github.io/luarocks/releases/luarocks-2.2.2.tar.gz" -O && tar -xzvf luarocks-2.2.2.tar.gz && cd luarocks-2.2.2 && ./configure && make build && make install'
3. Your error message indicates, that the file you are trying to untar is actually not a tar.gz file despite its name. This can be verified by simply examining the file you just downloaded (e.g. with the file command): It is actually an HTML file with the server response of the curl request, which contains the message of a permanent redirect. In order for curl to follow the server redirect, you have to invoke it with -L.
