compose build fails due to progress=tty

[sumitc96]

Describe the bug
Tried to switch over to dockman from portainer and ran into compose build issue.

Here's the stack I am trying to run:

services:
  frigate:
    container_name: frigate_140
    #privileged: true # this may not be necessary for all setups
    restart: unless-stopped
    build:

dockman up gives the following error:

docker-compose --progress=tty -f frigatestack/frigatestack-compose.yaml up -d -y --build --remove-orphan

`
⠋ Image frigatestack-frigate Building 0.0s
unable to prepare context: unable to evaluate symlinks in Dockerfile path: lstat /opt/docker/dockman/stacks/frigatestack/Dockerfile: no such file or directory

`
While in portainer and directly using docker compose works fine

docker compose -f frigatestack/frigatestack-compose.yaml up -d

Try separating the dockerfile into its own file instead of inline

[sumitc96]

thanks for the reply, will try to separate the Dockerfile. Meanwhile 2.5.1 accepts inline dockerfile fine.

It seems dockerfile_inline needs the docker/buildx plugin

To prevent bloat, Dockman includes only the compose binary and no extra plugins

You could fix this by mounting the plugin directory so that Compose can find it

/usr/local/lib/docker/cli-plugins:/usr/local/lib/docker/cli-plugins

Thanks, tried to mount trick and seems to go further, but got this error now. docker-compose --progress=tty -f frigatestack/frigatestack-compose.yaml up -d -y --build --remove-orphans time="2026-01-03T03:25:01Z" level=warning msg="/opt/docker/dockman/stacks/frigatestack/frigatestack-compose.yaml: the attribute `version` is obsolete, it will be ignored, please remove it to avoid potential confusion" failed to get console: provided file is not a console

That is a bug. Use a separate Dockerfile until I can fix it

[sumitc96]

Thanks so much for your help. Can i go back to 2.5.1 version temporarily?

Yes you can use v2 instead of latest
