Docker compose throwing find: ‘’: No such file or directory

Question

I am trying to execute docker-compose on top of official Cassandra docker image.

Basically, I am trying to set a few of properties present inside Cassandra image at /etc/cassandra/cassandra.yaml . My docker-compose looks like

version: '3.0'

services:
  cassandra:
      image: cassandra:3.11.6
      ports:
        - "9042:9042"
      environment:
        - CASSANDRA_ENABLE_USER_DEFINED_FUNCTIONS=true
      # restart: always
      volumes:
        - ./cassandra-dc-1:/usr/local/bin/
      container_name: cassandra-dc-1
      entrypoint: /usr/local/bin/docker-entrypoint.sh
      # command: /usr/local/bin/docker-entrypoint.sh

When I run docker-compose up --build I get below error, from the directory where I have the docker-compose.yaml present

cassandra-dc-1 | find: ‘’: No such file or directory
cassandra-dc-1 exited with code 1

I tried giving

Absolute path in the volume
./cassandra-dc-1:/usr/local/bin/ -- using this with file 'docker-entrypoint.sh' which I want to copy within docker

I am unable to figure out what is wrong.

If you just to set properties in yaml file you do not need to override the entrypoint as it will hide a lot of executable not only entrypoint by doing below

      volumes:
        - ./cassandra-dc-1:/usr/local/bin/

Do not mound the whole directory /usr/local/bin/.

If you just want to override entrypoint then do the following

      volumes:
        - ./cassandra-dc-1/docker-entrypoint.sh:/usr/local/bin/docker-entrypoint.sh

Custom config file

FROM cassandra:3.11.6
copy my_customconfig.yml /etc/cassandra/cassandra.yaml

That's all you need to run with custom config, copy the config during build time.

or with docker-compose

      volumes:
        - ./cassandra.yaml:/etc/cassandra/cassandra.yaml
