Getting cannot start service {X} error while starting Docker containers.

There can be different reasons why a container fails during initialization. Below are the most common reasons:

bind: address already in use

This error means that the network port (which is supposed to be used by the failed container) is already in use by your system. You need to find and kill the process which is using this specific port before starting the corresponding Docker container. If, for some reason, you don't want to kill the process which is using that port, another option is to change the port number for Docker container. You need to find and change the ports parameter for the specific Docker container in the docker-compose.yml configuration file.
