Docker compose can not start service network not found after restart docker

The network has changed. I used docker network prune command to meet the same problem.Recreate the container would fix the problem. Docker would set up the network again for the new containers.

#remove all containers
docker rm $(docker ps -qa)
#or
docker system prune

There might be some old container instances which were not removed. Check the instances with

docker container ls -a

You might get output like this if you have some instances which were not removed

CONTAINER ID        IMAGE               COMMAND                  CREATED             STATUS                   PORTS               NAMES

Remove the containers by the container id

docker container rm 8b4678e6666b
docker container rm ee862a3418f2 

Now start your container with docker-compose file This worked for me. Hope it helps!

I found a possible solution editing the docker-compose.yml file as follows:

version: '3'

services:
  cm04:
    image: tnc530_cm04
    networks:
      - test
    privileged: false
    restart: always
    build:
      context: C:/ProgramData/Docker/volumes/adontec/LSV2_Lib/Heidenhain/TNC530
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
      args:
        ENTRY: "1"
    volumes:
      - C:/ProgramData/Docker/volumes/sqlite:C:/sqlite
      - C:/ProgramData/Docker/volumes/adontec/LSV2_Lib/Heidenhain/TNC530/bin/x86/Release:C:/adontec
  cm06:
    image: tnc620_cm06
    networks:
      - test
    privileged: false
    restart: always
    build:
      context: C:/ProgramData/Docker/volumes/adontec/LSV2_Lib/Heidenhain/TNC620
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
      args:
        ENTRY: "2"
    volumes:
      - C:/ProgramData/Docker/volumes/sqlite:C:/sqlite
      - C:/ProgramData/Docker/volumes/adontec/LSV2_Lib/Heidenhain/TNC620/bin/x86/Release:C:/adontec
  cm08:
    image: tnc620_cm08
    networks:
      - test
    privileged: false
    restart: always
    build:
      context: C:/ProgramData/Docker/volumes/adontec/LSV2_Lib/Heidenhain/TNC620
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
      args:
        ENTRY: "4"
    volumes:
      - C:/ProgramData/Docker/volumes/sqlite:C:/sqlite
      - C:/ProgramData/Docker/volumes/adontec/LSV2_Lib/Heidenhain/TNC620/bin/x86/Release:C:/adontec

networks:
  test:
    external:
      name: nat

As you can see I created a network called test linked with the external network nat. Now, when I restart the docker services the containers are started with no errors.
