After setting cosmos to true in config/default.json according to the README

npm run start results in an error

PWD: is the working directory which is the cloned axelar-example repo And traefik container is running in docker desktop

Hello @bizzyvinci, do you have Docker deamon running in the background ? What's your OS?

[bizzyvinci]

Yes, docker daemon is running and the OS is MacOS (M1). But I got the same error in Kali-Linux.

[bizzyvinci]

When the daemon is not running, I'll get

{
  exitCode: 1,
  err: 'time="2024-08-11T13:44:44+01:00" level=warning msg="PWD/node_modules/@axelar-network/axelar-local-dev-cosmos/docker/traefik/docker-compose.yaml: the attribute `version` is obsolete, it will be ignored, please remove it to avoid potential confusion"\n' +
    'Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///Users/user/.docker/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?\n',
  out: ''
}

The issue is that the repo works with docker compose V1, and not V2. This answer about installing V1 worked

V1: docker-compose ps V2: docker compose ps

Just using alias docker-compose="docker compose" does not work.

Got it. Thanks for flagging this. We currently use v1 and periodically update the dependencies, which we will consider adding this update as well. cc: @npty
