Starting Django with docker unexpected character

Question

I'm trying to start up this Project on my Mac https://github.com/realsuayip/django-sozluk It works on my Windows machine, but I got this Error on my Mac:

unexpected character "." in variable name near "127.0.0.1 192.168.2.253\nDJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=djdict.settings_prod\n\n\nSQL_ENGINE=django.db.backends.postgresql\nSQL_PORT=5432\nDATABASE=postgres\nSQL_HOST=db\n\nSQL_DATABASE=db_dictionary\nSQL_USER=db_dictionary_user\nSQL_PASSWORD=db_dictionary_password\n\n\nEMAIL_HOST=eh\nEMAIL_PORT=587\nEMAIL_HOST_USER=eh_usr\nEMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD=pw" furkan@MacBook-Air-von-Furkan gs %

Any help would be much appreciated!

Answer 1

Turning off the "Use Docker Compose V2" flag in the settings did it for me.

Answer 2

I had a similar problem with a docker container. It probably appears after a system update under my linux. I can't say anything about the reason, but try following:

Quote the variable values in file ".env" of the Project, such as:

DEBUG=0
SECRET_KEY=foo
DJANGO_ALLOWED_HOSTS="localhost 127.0.0.1 192.168.2.253"
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE="djdict.settings_prod"


SQL_ENGINE="django.db.backends.postgresql"

# ...

And try again
