I would like to running docker-compose.
during running react and django application, docker-compose returns the following error:

      - /home/dominik/data/humanet-pgadmin/servers.json:/pgadmin4/servers.json

it is first time when docker returns my that message:
Cannot start service api: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:380: starting container process caused: exec: "python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000": executable file not found in $PATH: unknown

ERROR: Encountered errors while bringing up the project.

how to deal with it?

Based on the error message
```
exec: "python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000"
```
It looks like you’ve passed the command and it’s args as a single field for docker to run. E.g. if your Dockerfile contains:
```
ENTRYPOINT [ "python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000" ]
```
That will look for the full string as the executable to run, not python with the first arg manage.py, but an executable named something like
```
/bin/"python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000"
```
Instead you’d need to separate each of these arguments:
```
ENTRYPOINT [ "python", "manage.py", "runserver", "0.0.0.0:8000" ]
```
Then you get to the next issue of why you are setting the command in your compose file and if you need that.

Try give executable permission in yous entrypoint.sh and docker-entrypoint.sh files with the command chmod +x before run docker-compose command.
