Please update your docker-compose version.

Hi,

FYI I got the same error and I am running the latest docker engine and docker-compose version.

A fix for me, if you can call it this way, was to use the previous version of netbox-docker : 2.3.0

I am no docker expert and I do not have time to investigate it today but I will try to have a look at it in the coming days (but to be honest I think I already did everything I could think about).

what I did is follow the very basic installation steps from the readme.md of the 'release' branch.

docker --version → Docker version 20.10.5+dfsg1, build 55c4c88
docker-compose --version → docker-compose version 1.25.0, build unknown
docker-compose version :

docker-compose version 1.25.0, build unknown
docker-py version: 4.1.0
CPython version: 3.9.2
OpenSSL version: OpenSSL 1.1.1n  15 Mar 2022

docker-compose --verbose pull :

compose.config.config.find: Using configuration files: ./docker-compose.yml,./docker-compose.override.yml
ERROR: compose.cli.main.main: The Compose file './docker-compose.yml' is invalid because:
services.netbox-housekeeping.depends_on contains an invalid type, it should be an array
services.netbox-worker.depends_on contains an invalid type, it should be an array

Same goes after an 'apt update && apt upgrade'
Same when trying to upgrade docker-compose specifically, I got : docker-compose is already the newest version (1.25.0-1).

Running on up-to-date Debian 11.6

I tried the same as the root user just to be sure : same output.
I also tried to change the "version" at the top of docker-compose.yml and docker-compose.override.yml file to everything from 3.1 to 3.9.

1.25.0 is NOT the current version of docker-compose. See here: https://github.com/docker/compose/releases

Damn Debian I guess, thanks for the answer @tobiasge, i'll use 2.3.0 for now.

On Debian 11, you could always... - apt-get install docker-compose=1.27.4-3~bpo11+1

…

I encountered exactly the same error today on my Ubuntu20.04 container (yes, I am nesting a docker container inside my proxmox CT). And it seems that apt update and apt upgrade can only bring docker-compose to version 1.25.0, but not anything higher, whilst Netbox docs clearly says a minimum of 1.28.0 is required. Hence, I used methods in this linked article to upgrade docker-compose to version 1.29.0.

And then the docker-compose pull doesn't generate the error shown in the title again. Hopefully this can help.

(But I encountered another set of errors which deserve their own thread for discussion).
