Docker Compose missing config file

[kymocode]

Anyone getting the following with docker compose up

[+] Running 1/0
 ✔ Container watchlistarr-watchlistarr-1  Created                                                                                                                                                                                       0.0s

Your config file is located here

/var/snap/docker/common/var-lib-docker/volumes/watchlistarr_config/_data/config.yaml

Can this be automatically created next to the docker-compose.yml file?

Could you share the docker-compose file you're using to start up Watchlistarr?

I have exactly the same issue creating my docker-compose. Here is mine

version: '3.8'
services:
  watchlistarr:
    image: nylonee/watchlistarr
    container_name: watchlistarr
    environment:
      SONARR_API_KEY:  _Key Removed_
      RADARR_API_KEY: _Key Removed_
      PLEX_TOKEN:  _Token Removed_
    volumes:
      - ./config:/app/config

I can spin the docker, but when I look at the logs, it gives the same errors as OP

root@docker:/docker/watchlistarr# docker-compose logs -f

watchlistarr exited with code 1

Yet, my docker LXC can ping my Sonarr LXC and I have communication between both of them.
