Hi @MdRashid I would strongly recommend following our official documentation, we prefer not to debug 3rd party instructions that may be inaccurate or out of date... a quick look at that shows it is nearly a year old and does not work with the latest 8.x versions. Please refer to : > **[Install Elasticsearch with Docker | Elasticsearch Guide \[8.10\] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docker.html?#docker-compose-file)** ---

Besides our documentation Here is a recent blog on our site for deploying the Stack > **[Getting started with the Elastic Stack and Docker-Compose](https://www.elastic.co/blog/getting-started-with-the-elastic-stack-and-docker-compose)** > > In part one of this two-part series, we’ll dive into configuring the components of a standard Elastic Stack consisting of Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana, and Beats (ELK-B), on which we can immediately begin developing. And here is a very popular and active repo for deploying the stack > **[GitHub - deviantony/docker-elk: The Elastic stack (ELK) powered by Docker and...](https://github.com/deviantony/docker-elk)** > > The Elastic stack (ELK) powered by Docker and Compose. - GitHub - deviantony/docker-elk: The Elastic stack (ELK) powered by Docker and Compose. So apologies. Spending time fixing errors on a repo with little or no support is not a good use of time. ---

For example in the compose, you are looking at if you changed the versions ` image: docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:7.15.0` to 8.x or something this compose will never work Also, the error is about SSL but it looks like SSL is not enabled so I have no idea... well that may be related to changing to 8.x. You should really start from one of the approved sources. Not to mention you have changes ```auto elasticsearch.username: kibana_system elasticsearch.password: changeme ``` Which makes me think you are trying 8.x ... So again this compose will not work... ---

@MdRashid I think you are on an ancient version of docker-compose 1.25.0 is like 2019 🙂 It should be like 2.21 or 2.22 > **[Docker Compose release notes](https://docs.docker.com/compose/release-notes/#120)** > > Release notes for Docker Compose That is why I think all those settings are not supported. ---
