I've installed docker-compose with 'pip2.7 install docker-compose" but when I try to run it as 'normal' user I get the following error message:

mike@hugin:~/Tobedeleted$ docker-compose  -v
Traceback (most recent call last):

    from backports.ssl_match_hostname import match_hostname
ImportError: No module named ssl_match_hostname

This user is part of the docker group and can run 'docker ps' etc without any issue.

If I try to run 'sudo docker-compose -v' I get the same error.

However, if I run 'sudo su -' first and then issue 'docker-compose -v' I get the expected output.

root@hugin:~# docker-compose -v
docker-compose version 1.11.2, build dfed245

I've tried 'pip uninstall' for various, and all, parts of docker-compose, ssl_match_hostname and then reinstall but nothing seems to resolve it.

I'm now thoroughly stuck - any ideas out there?

you have to reinstall docker-compose using this command:

curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.13.0/docker-compose-`uname -s`-`uname -m` > /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

it worked for me

    I also had to 1/ uninstall docker-compose first and 2/run ```sudo rm /home/myName/.local/bin/docker-compose``` (as it conflicted in my path name) And for a up-to-date install (and uninstall) instructions see here: https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/ – Sofien Nov 26 '20 at 07:58

    see latest release at https://github.com/docker/compose/releases – Scott Stensland Jul 17 '21 at 10:36
  • @SofienM it is recommended to get the installation command from https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/ and currently the latest version is 1.29.2 – thanos.a Dec 20 '21 at 13:32

you should check if docker-compose exist, is installed and running:

$ whereis docker-compose
$ docker-compose --version

check if exist symbolic link pip -> pip2.7 or pip -> pip3.6 by running:

$ sudo pip install docker-compose

This happened to me after updating to Python 3.10. I fixed it by reinstalling docker-compose with:

pip install docker-compose

Note: running yay -S docker-compose on Manjaro didn't work for me.

Docker Compose now runs as a Docker plugin. I recommend using:

sudo apt-get install docker-compose-plugin

And then use docker compose instead of docker-compose

Check the permission on the remote host where the ansible jobs are getting executed.

Make sure the "other" users have the execute permission of the module packages.

sudo chmod -R  o=rx /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/

Firstly check if you have the docker sock file under /var/run/.

# ls -l /var/run/docker.sock
# docker info

If the file doesn't exist, then restart the docker service. If it still doesn't exist, restart the node and see if you have the file.

Also worked for me.

Issue root@ashish:/DOCKER# docker-compose -v Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/docker-compose", line 5, in from compose.cli.main import main ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'compose'

Solution

curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.13.0/docker-compose-uname -s-uname -m > /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

After executed above command, Output should be look like given below.

root@ashish:/DOCKER# docker-compose -v docker-compose version 1.13.0, build 1719ceb

Thanks Ashish Jha
