Hi guys, so I’m a newbie at edx and only know about frontend. Anyway, I tried to run the edx devstack on master branch. I use MacOS and have python3, docker desktop installed, I followed the steps and successfully ran `make requirements`, `make dev.clone.https`, `make dev.pull.large-and-slow`. However, at the step `make dev.provision`, it threw an error and with my limited knowledge, I can’t quite figured out how to resolve it. Here’s the [image of the error](https://pasteboard.co/K2Ex1eT.png). Please tell me what i need to provide for you guys to be able to help me. Thank you in advance.

Hi @Chien_Dao , just a suggestion - in future please copy/paste the relevant error as text into the forum post, instead of a linked screenshot. That will make it easier for those helping to read and copy text from the log output. 🙂

Ah my bad, at the time i made this thread, i didn’t have my mac with me and only have the picture of the error. The output log from when i ran `make dev.provision` is too big so i’ll just post the ending part of it. Please tell me if i need to post the other part too.

please, you can run this command directly on the lms, or cms docker container and paste the log here? `NODE_ENV=development STATIC_ROOT_LMS=/edx/var/edxapp/staticfiles STATIC_ROOT_CMS=/edx/var/edxapp/staticfiles/studio JS_ENV_EXTRA_CONFIG="{}" $(npm bin)/webpack --config=webpack.dev.config.js`

So i quit trying to make it run on mac and decided to install ubuntu LTS 20.04 on my windows machine. Unfortunately, still failed at this step, but it’s a different error this time.
```

[The failing command](https://github.com/edx/devstack/blob/20d8600154df023cf830305c16f63da91806090b/provision-e2e.sh#L13) contains a a call to `make dev.print-container.studio` which ends up doing `docker-compose ps --quiet studio` (it’s here [in the Makefile](https://github.com/edx/devstack/blob/20d8600154df023cf830305c16f63da91806090b/Makefile#L332)).
But it looks like it should be `docker-compose ps -q studio` (@Chien_Dao, try changing `--quiet` to `-q` in the `Makefile`).
More details about why the error happened:
```auto
~/opencraft/devstack11docker_master/devstack$ docker-compose ps --quiet studio
List containers.
Usage: ps [options] [SERVICE...]
Options:
-q Only display IDs
~/opencraft/devstack11docker_master/devstack$ docker-compose ps -q studio
c056820fe66ca67328d295a936ad11762b5e70c3b9d20576b43049a40ccd2078
~/opencraft/devstack11docker_master/devstack$ docker-compose -v
docker-compose version 1.18.0, build 8dd22a9
```
You can consider opening a `devstack` PR to use `-q` instead of `--quiet` in the `Makefile`, since it seems that `-q` works in more `docker-compose` versions than `–quiet``.
