title: docker-compose service version error
body: <p>I am trying to run <a href="https://docs.docker.com/compose/django/" rel="nofollow">this example</a> from the official docker page.</p>
  
  <p>However I am getting the following error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>ERROR: In file './docker-compose.yml' service 'version' doesn't have any configuration options. All top level keys in your docker-compose.yml must map to a dictionary of configuration options.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>when running the following command:</p>
  
  <p><code>$ docker-compose run web django-admin.py startproject composeexample .</code></p>
  
  <p>I am using:</p>
  
  <p><code>$ docker-compose -version</code></p>
  
  <p><code>docker-compose version 1.5.2, build 7240ff3</code></p>
  
  <p>on Ubuntu 16.04 </p>
  
  <p>Could not find any helpful posts / suggestions by googling the issue.</p>
