    This is due to Docker moving to compose-v2
    See https://docs.docker.com/compose/migrate/ for details.

    On Ubuntu 24.04, if you installed the docker-compose package, uninstall it and install docker-compose-v2.

    Now, instead of running docker-compose up -d rather run docker compose up -d.

    By using Jean Visser answer here is the complete workaround to getting docker up and running on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.

    Install

    sudo apt update; sudo apt upgrade;
sudo apt install docker.io docker-compose-v2
sudo usermod -aG docker ${USER}

    Logout and Login.

    Run

    docker-compose up -d
docker compose ps
