I am following the Getting Started section of the Docker Compose tutorial and at Step 4, I am getting the following error:
Named volume “C\Users\Documents\misc-docker-tutorial\composetest:/code:rw” is used in service “web” but no declaration was found in the volumes section. The only resource I could find on this subject was https://github.com/ClusterHQ/dvol/issues/67 which doesn’t appear to have a resolution.
Adding a slash in front of the volume name (thusly, \C\Users\Documents…:/code:rw) solves the above issue but returns a different error message:
ERROR: for web Cannot create container for service web: create \C\Users\Documents\misc-docker-tutorial\composetest: “\C\Users\Documents\misc-docker-tutorial\composetest” includes invalid characters for a local volume name, only “[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_.-]” are allowed
Encountered errors while bringing up the project.
