Possible work around , After SSH’ing into your guest (linux) run the following commands :

$ sudo su
$ docker-compose up

Edit: ^ I forgot to specify that this solution was performed within a WSL2 environment on Windows 10.

I find that this error only occurs over ssh. I’m using ssh server on windows, Win32 OpneSSH and when I use docker-compose build over ssh, above error occurs. However, when I try docker build (not docker-compose build) over ssh, it works well. So I think it’s still a problem of docker-compose and I’ll leave this issue opened.

@luisegarduno In this issue, we are talking about docker running on Windows. Not linux.

It happens to me when I use git bash, when I run the command on the windows cmd this problem does not happen

Try renaming the file instead of deleting it. The file will get re-created almost immediately after it is deleted. Renaming it (config.bla or whatever) gives you some extra seconds until it is also recreated.

Same here: docker and docker-compose versions are exactly the same, but running on WIndows 10 1909 (18363.418). The error also does occur when sitting right in front of the system (so not ssh’ing into Windows). Deleting %userprofile%.docker\config.json solves the problem and docker-compose pull runs without any errors. But config.json gets recreated after some time.
