Explanation:
The error message “no configuration file provided: not found” is displayed when you run the command “docker-compose up -d
” without specifying a configuration file.
Docker Compose requires a YAML configuration file named “docker-compose.yml” in the current directory in order to start the services defined in the file.
To fix this error, you need to create a proper Docker Compose configuration file (docker-compose.yml) or specify a valid file using the -f
or --file
option.
Here’s an example of a docker-compose.yml file:
version: '3.8' services: web: image: nginx ports: - 80:80 volumes: - ./html:/usr/share/nginx/html
In this example, a service named “web” is defined using the “nginx” image. It exposes port 80 on the host and mounts a local directory “./html” as the web server’s document root.
Save this file as “docker-compose.yml” in the current directory and then try running “docker-compose up -d
” again. It should start the container(s) defined in the configuration file.
