Documented steps Add `container_name: <name>` to the service to fix the container's name instead of the default <project>-<service>-<replica> pattern. Name must match regex [a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+. Because the name is fixed, the service cannot be scaled beyond one container; attempting to scale errors. Prefer relying on the auto-generated name unless another system requires a stable, known container name. Docs: https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/05-services/#container_name Known gotchas Setting container_name silently disables scaling; `docker compose up --scale <svc> 3` fails if container_name is set. Fixed names can collide if you run the same project twice (e.g. prod + staging) — the second cannot start.
