Edit: though if you want long running game servers, a small minipc that draws a tiny amount of power is a good way to continuously keep the server portion running without wasting a ton of energy. The Intel N100 or the Ryzen 5 (forget which) can both run below 12W, which is about the same as an LED light bulb.




Compose is just a single binary. There is no wrong way to install it really as long as it can find all the needed shared libraries and such.
If in doubt, look at the manual install instructions. Run through that, and see if it behaves any differently.
Some logs from the startup of a this container would help. Just run
docker compose up(without the -d) and you’ll get all the output up front.
