Hello! I try to install rocket.chat according to the docker-compose [documentation](https://docs.rocket.chat/quick-start/installing-and-updating/rapid-deployment-methods/docker-and-docker-compose/docker-containers), but when I run `docker-compose up -d` I get an error:

```bash
ERROR: The Compose file './docker-compose.yml' is invalid because:
services.rocketchat.ports contains unsupported option: 'host_ip'

```

my file is `docker-compose.yml` taken from the official repository:

```

When running the old [docker-compose.yml](https://github.com/RocketChat/Docker.Official.Image/commit/bb85059cb0af244c812a64aad49bd0eb7fd349bf#diff-e45e45baeda1c1e73482975a664062aa56f20c03dd9d64a827aba57775bed0d3) file there was no such problem.

Please tell me what caused this problem and how to properly fix it?

Hi! Welcome to our Community!

I just faced this issue today, and learned that my docker version was too old.

After updating to latest version, it worked properly:

$ docker --version  
Docker version 20.10.17, build 100c701

Thanks for the advice, but I already have the latest version of docker installed. But you gave me the idea to check the docker-compose version and that was really the problem, 1.29.2 was installed.

Did you succeed on this? Which version of docker-compose did you update to?
