Docker-compose up - Permission denied on most everything

Docker Engine Compose
1

I created a YML to create a WordPress site based on examples. I’m running on Windows 10 Pro with Docker LCOW enabled. I’ll include the YML below.

In Powershell running as Administrator I execute:

docker-compose up

The database setup returns an error:

db_1         | Initializing database
db_1         | 2018-01-03T17:47:18.089988Z 0 [Warning] Changed limits: max_open_files: 1024 (requested 5000)

db_1         | 2018-01-03T17:47:18.094572Z 0 [ERROR] Aborting
db_1         |

Then the WordPress setup returns errors (LOTS OF THESE):

....

....

If I uncheck LCOW in Docker and set to Linux containers, I get a different error that seems related to DNS:

PS C:\users\me\Documents\Docker-composer> docker-compose up
Pulling db (mysql:latest)...
ERROR: Get https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/: dial tcp: lookup registry-1.docker.io on [::1]:53: read udp [::1]:44545->[::1]:53: read: connection refused

Of course, I get other errors if I set to Windows container and try this.

I’ve been stuck on this for 4 days now. Uninstall/re-install. So much researching I’m going cross-eyed! Any help would be sweet. Thanks.

The YML I am trying:

version: "3"

services:
   db:
     image: mysql
     volumes:
       - db_data:/var/lib/mysql/data
     restart: always
     environment:
       MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: somewordpress
       MYSQL_DATABASE: wordpress
       MYSQL_USER: wordpress
       MYSQL_PASSWORD: wordpress

   wordpress:
     depends_on:
       - db
     image: wordpress:latest
     ports:
       - "8000:80"
     restart: always
     environment:
       WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: db:3306
       WORDPRESS_DB_USER: wordpress
       WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: wordpress
volumes:
    db_data:
2

just curious, I had the same error message today, hence how i found this post (but my issue might be different).
Just wanted to say: I do remember i setup the mysql volume as /var/lib/mysql, not /var/lib/mysql/data the other day and it worked for my Drupal site …
https://hub.docker.com/_/mysql mentions the former path as well. Could that be the mysql issue?

For the other user issue, maybe this (set the user/group to 33 in the docker run or the compose file):
