  I am using `docker-compose up` to start a web server in linux but am finding that the `stdout` is printing "\n" characters instead of creating new lines. This makes stack traces difficult to read;

  Try to read logs as follows:
  
  ```
  docker logs -f <container-name or container-ID> 2>&1
  
  ```
  
  ---
  
  [**NOTE**]:
  
  * `-f` option follows live logs.
  * `2>&1` makes output as `stdout` and `stderr` which is useful for grepping and standardizing.
