docker-compose on wsl: stdin is not a tty

[brunopistone]

Hi guys, I have the following problem: I'm using the linux subsystem on windows 10, with docker and docker compose installed on the pc. I've configured everything in order to use them inside the ubuntu bash.
When I run the command:

docker-compose up -d

Everything works, containers are up and the application is running well. But when I try to exec:

docker-compose exec --user root container /bin/bash

I receive the following message:
the input device is not a TTY. If you are using mintty, try prefixing the command with 'winpty'
So I tried to exec:

winpty.exe docker-compose exec --user root container /bin/bash

And I receive this:
stdin is not a tty

Since this is really a blocking issue for me, there is a solution for this? Thank you for the help.

It's a long standing issue with Docker. The way it does terminal detection only works with cmd.exe and powershell.exe at the moment. Any third-party terminal breaks that detection and gives the message.
