flag provided but not defined: -console

Description

Hi there, I run my containers with docker-compose. It worked fine for a long time, but today I am not able to start my containers. I get the message for all my containers such as below:

ERROR: for redis Cannot start service redis: oci runtime error: flag provided but not defined: -console

my docker-compose.yml (I show the few services to simplify):

postgres:
  image: unit.chat:5043/pg
  volumes:
    - ./data/pg:/var/lib/postgresql/data

rabbit:
  image: rabbitmq:3-management

redis:
  image: redis

there is the logs of docker daemon on my last attempt:

Hello @SavostinVladimir and thank you for filling this issue. I transferred it to the docker/compose as it looks like it is an issue related to the docker-composetool and not the docker CLI.

Hello, @silvin-lubecki! I've tried to run my images with docker too. But got the same results.

[ulyssessouza]

Hello @SavostinVladimir. Could you please provide a minimal docker-compose.yml, Dockerfile and .env (if existent) that reproduces the problem? What happens when do a simple docker run on the failing examples?

But at first, try to update your docker engine, from what I see in the logs Built: Thu Nov 2 20:40:23 2017 looks quite old. Could be an already fixed problem.
