Running docker-compose on a docker gitlab-ci-multi-runner

Question

I have a project running on Docker with docker-compose for dev environment.

I want to get it running on GitLabCI with a gitlab-ci-multi-runner "Docker mode" instance.

my .gitlab-ci.yml file:

image: soullivaneuh/docker-bash
before_script:
- apk add --update bash curl
- curl --silent --location https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.5.2/docker-compose-`uname -s`-`uname -m` > /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
- chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
- ./configure
- docker-compose up -d
I get this error when I execute docker-compose up -d command

The problem (as I understand it) is that the binary was compiled and linked against glibc, but alpine uses musl, not glibc.

You could use ldd /usr/local/bin/docker-compose to tell you which libraries are missing (or run it with strace if all else fails).
