  • @3760216 when I run the `docker-compose up -d` command in the terminal I face the same error. ` rajdeepsingh@officialrajdeepsingh:/media/rajdeepsingh/79215e78-8cd9-40b7-8109-9e6a38985a37/ghostLocal/dev$ docker-compose up -d ERROR: .PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: './docker-compose.yml'` – officialrajdeepsingh Sep 23 '21 at 17:19

This permission issue is because by default docker daemon runs as root, and you are running as non-root user.

To fix the permission error, use following commands:

 sudo groupadd docker
 sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

Then logout and login again or you can simply run the following command to make the changes instantly

newgrp docker
