[v3.20.2] WSL2 Could not detect docker-compose v2.21.0! Downloading it

[eldair]

Hello,

I'm using lando in wsl 2 with docker desktop installed on windows 11.

Latest lando version cannot detect that docker-compose is available and instead is trying to download it:
"Could not detect docker-compose v2.21.0! Downloading it"

Everything was working fine in previous version.

@eldair this is expected. just let it download it.

[eldair]

I did and it works, but what happened with that downloaded file? Is it deleted now or?

[pirog]

it should be in ~/.lando/bin and it is what lando will use for docker compose.

[web-assistant]

I get this message every single time I run a lando command

Could not detect docker-compose v2.21.0! Downloading it...

~/.lando/bin seems empty

I'm using lando via hyper-v on Windows 10

@web-assistant run it in verbose mode with -vvv there should be relevant output about what is happening. If that message is showing up every time then its not downloading it correctly for whatever reason.

If it fails it will try to use a system-installed version of docker-compose if that is available. See https://docs.lando.dev/core/v3/orchestrator.html for more details

for reference this is what the verbose output looks like for me

@pirog running -vvv outputs...

[pirog]

got it. that seems like a legit bug then. not sure why that is happening in your situation but is something we can guard against at least.

in the meantime i would manually download it and place it at C:\Users\webassistnt_000.lando\bi n\docker-compose-v2.21.0 which should at least get you going.

You may need to either remove the .exe from the filename or set the following in your global lando config.yml

orchestratorBin: C:\Users\webassistnt_000.lando\bin\docker-compose-v2.21.0.exe

[web-assistant]

@pirog downloading and putting the docker-compose-v2.21.0.exe file into the bin manually has solved the issue for me - I did have to remove the .ext for it to work.

Thank you! 🙂👍

[pirog]

thank you for helping us track down a pretty bad bug!

[bryanbuchs]

Same issue here, was able to correct by setting my user account's .lando/config.yml to:

orchestratorBin: 'C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\bin\docker-compose'

...fix for this should be in the next 3.20.x release: #68
