Can you paste your docker-compose.yml file?

[devsaumya]

version: '3.6'
services:

  portainer:
    container_name: portainer
    image: portainer/portainer
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - 9000:9000
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
      - ./volumes/portainer/data:/data

  mongodb:
    image: mongo:4.2.3-bionic
    container_name: mongodb
    ports:
      - 27017:27017
    environment:
      - MONGO_INITDB_DATABASE=admin
      - MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME=admin
      - MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD=admin
    volumes:
      # seeding scripts
      - ./volumes/mongodb/mongo-entrypoint:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d

Hey @DevSaumyadip there's 2 issues here. The first one, the issue that the "container" doesn't start (I'm assuming you mean the mongodb container based off your docker-compose.yml) is hopefully an easy fix. Just put this code right below the line container_name: mongodb

    restart: unless-stopped

Make sure the indentation is correct or it will error.

The second issue is harder to diagnose. Can you copy and paste the exact error message you see, along with the commands you entered in to produce it?

[devsaumya]

no after adding restart: unless-stopped it does not work also, I think that's a bug with Docker version 19.03.8
