docker-compose.yml

lighttpd:
  image: parzee/lighttpd
  ports: 
    - "8083:8083"
  volumes:
    - volumes/log:/var/log/lighttpd 

When I run:

docker run -h lighttpd -p 8083:8083 -d -v `pwd`/volumes/log:/var/log/lighttpd -t parzee/lighttpd

my container starts fine, but with docker-compose up I get the following error:

Creating lighttpd_lighttpd_1
ERROR: volumes/log includes invalid characters for a local volume name, only [a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_.-] are allowed
