Are you trying to deploy a file? Then you should probably use the `single-file` Update Module, which is available [here](https://hub.mender.io/t/single-file/486). The article tells you how to install it and use it.

The message you are getting is because there is no Update Module with the name “docker-compose”. I believe this message has been improved in the 2.2.0 client, which is just around the corner.
