I'm getting this error when I tried to docker-compose build my docker-compose.yml file:

In file './docker-compose.yml' service 'version' doesn't have any configuration options. All top level keys in your docker-compose.yml must map to a dictionary of configuration options.

docker version

Client: Version: 1.12.6 API version: 1.24 Go version: go1.6.3 Git commit: 78d1802 Built: Tue Jan 31 23:47:34 2017 OS/Arch: linux/amd64

Server: Version: 1.12.6 API version: 1.24 Go version: go1.6.3 Git commit: 78d1802 Built: Tue Jan 31 23:47:34 2017 OS/Arch: linux/amd64

docker --version Docker version 1.12.6, build 78d1802

docker-compose --version docker-compose version 1.5.2, build unknown

is this because the build unknown?

docker-composer.yml

version: "2"

services:
    postgres:
        image: postgres:9.6
        volumes:

@whites11 version: "2" services: postgres: image: postgres:9.6 volumes: - pgdata:/var/lib/data/postgres backend: build: . command: gosu app bash volumes: - .:/app - pyenv:/python links: - postgres:postgres ports: - 8000:8000 volumes: pyenv: pgdata: - 4M01
post it in the question, with proper formatting, please - whites11
how are you indenting ? with tabs? try indenting with 2 spaces. - whites11
I think the issue is related with version not indentation @whites11 - 4M01

Try upgrading the docker-compose version. Version 2 files are supported by Compose 1.6.0+ and require a Docker Engine of version 1.10.0+.

Install latest "docker-compose" - 

$ sudo curl -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.15.0/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)"
$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

Ref- https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/compose-versioning/#version-2

You should install docker-compose using the official documentation https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/

If you are using linux, I have found the apt install for docker-compose shows some weird behavior. So uninstall docker-compose and reinstall it using the official documentation above.

sudo apt-get purge docker-compose
