Docker-compose can't find suitable file, even though it exists
So I am running ubuntu 18.04 lts on windows 10 through hyper-v and I'm trying to run the docker compose command through the terminal. When inside the docker folder and I run ls, it says there is a docker-compose.yml file. Still when I run docker compose command, it says no suitable configuration file is found.
docker-compose up -d
ERROR:
Can't find a suitable configuration file in this directory or any
parent. Are you in the right directory?
Supported filenames: docker-compose.yml, docker-compose.yaml
I'm using docker version 18.09.0 and docker compose version 1.22.0

Found out the problem was using shared folder functionality with Hyper V and windows 10. For some reason docker won't work when the docker-compose.yml file is located inside that, however when I move it outside of the shared(e.g. home directory) folder it does work. So if I want to use the docker file I have to place it outside the shared folder to make it work. Rest of the project runs as expected, so a little workaround ......
