docker-compose ERROR: Cannot locate specified Dockerfile - docker

Question

I have a .Net Core project that I want to deploy production environment but when I try to build it on my droplet I get this error "ERROR: Cannot locate specified Dockerfile". I couldn't figure out what's wrong with my configurations.

docker-compose.yml
version: '3.7'
services:
webapp:
build:
context: .
dockerfile: project.Web/Dockerfile
I execute these codes on different environments
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d --build
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --build
This docker-compose works on local environment but doesn't work on prod, can't find Dockerfile.
I've checked .dockerignore if it contains Dockerfile but i doesn't.
I've tried to execute with these configs but still no luck
- context: .
dockerfile: project.Web/Dockerfile
- context: .
dockerfile: Dockerfile
- context: app/
dockerfile: Dockerfile
- context: app/project.Web/
dockerfile: Dockerfile
EDIT:
I didn't think dev or prod docker-compose file is the problem but adding anyway.

Assuming you have already pushed the alicoskun/project:latest image into a repository where your production droplet can find it, you have no need to include the docker-compose.yml file as part of your docker-compose command. Instead, just run:
docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --build
Including the docker-compose.yml in your docker-compose command-line will require that the Dockerfile be present, even though it will not be used to build the system.
