I'm experiencing the same issue with docker-compose version 1.24.0, build 0aa59064.

I'm also getting this error with the newest version of docker-compose and docker-ce.

Just got this error on docker-compose version 1.24.1, build 4667896b, which appears to be the release directly after this was marked fixed. On macOS 10.14.6.

Result:

Hello @cbornhoft. The correction is meat to be in 1.25.0-rc1 not in 1.24.1

[cbornhoft]

@ulyssessouza great thanks, will update once 1.25 is released.

I changed the version: '3.2' to version: "3.2" and everything worked for me
