Context: I want to create a docker-compose to run ELK + Beats + Kafka for logging purposes.
I had successfully started this task and suddenly I decided to update docker-compose from version 2 to version 3. After that I keep getting:
ERROR: for kibana Cannot start service kibana: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:346: starting container process caused "process_linux.go:449: container init caused \"rootfs_linux.go:58: mounting \\\"/host_mnt/c/Dockers/megalog-try-1/kibana.yml\\\" to rootfs \\\"/var/lib/docker/overlay2/e1bf99bc19edf4bb68bfad5a76c1e6b9ac1b69f84af85767c2127fd1295c0536/merged\\\" at \\\"/var/lib/docker/overlay2/e1bf99bc19edf4bb68bfad5a76c1e6b9ac1b69f84af85767c2127fd1295c0536/merged/usr/share/kibana/config/kibana.yml\\\" caused \\\"not a directory\\\"\"": unknown: Are you trying to mount a directory onto a file (or vice-versa)?

ERROR: Encountered errors while bringing up the project.
Firstly I though it was because previous volume was impacting somehow then I deleted all volumes and previous containers. But it didn't fix it.
I read carefully Are you trying to mount a directory onto a file (or vice-versa)? and checked all suggestions but I didn't move forward. In my case, I am not using Oracle Virtual Box at all.
Any thing suggestion to check will be highly appreciatted.

*** Edited
I could move forward by:
1 - deleting all images. After that I got this other error message
ERROR: for elasticsearch Cannot start service elasticsearch: error while creating mount source path '/host_mnt/c/Dockers/megalog-try-1/esdata': mkdir /host_mnt/c/Dockers/megalog-try-1/esdata: file exists
2 - then I read somewhere someone saying this weird solution: remove D drive from share files, save, restart, share again, save and restart. Well then it worked. Honestly I don't consider this the answer to my above question mainly beacause it was working wiht docker-compose version 2 and now I am jumping from one error to another. Either I did something wrong in docker-compose file or there is some concept I am missing ( I can't delete images and remove shared drive on daily base).
3 - now I can't log in Kibana with "Kibana server is not ready yet" and this message from Docker
{"type":"log","@timestamp":"2020-02-04T04:03:53Z","tags":["warning","elasticsearch","admin"],"pid":6,"message":"No living connections"}

By the way, I wasn't get issues at all when using docker-compose version 2. So I am wondering if docker-compose version isn't the issue.
