Compose: Can't build, reports : "Error: the Dockerfile (Dockerfile) can't be empty. However it exists within same dir

[danieldram]

I am not sure how to solve this issue.. I tried for an hour.
I uninstalled previous versions of Docker and docker-compose, I reinstalled the new docker for macosx.

The dir structure ha both the docker-compose.yml and Dockerfile in the same directory, here are the files:

Dockerfile

```
FROM node:latest
MAINTAINER Daniel Ram
COPY . /var/www
WORKDIR /var/www

RUN npm install
EXPOSE 3000
CMD ["npm", "start"]

#docker-compose.yml

version: '2'
services:
playthis_server:
build:
context: .
dockerfile: Dockerfile
logging:
driver: "json-file"
options:
max-size: "1000m"
max-file: "10"
ports:
# - "80:3000"
- "3003:3003"
restart: "always"
networks:
- app
networks:
app:
driver: bridge

After running this command, it fails to build:

$docker-compose up -d

Building playthis_server
ERROR: the Dockerfile (Dockerfile) cannot be empty

Any ideas on how to solve this issue?
