Hi everyone  
I try to start hivmq ce with docker compose with this yaml

```auto
version: '3.5'
services:
    hivemq:
        container_name: hivemq
        image: hivemq/hivemq-ce:2021.1
        restart: always
        networks:
            - network_name
        ports:
            - "8000:8000"
            - "1883:1883"
        volumes:
            - hivemq-data-volume:/opt/hivemq/data
            - hivemq-log-volume:/opt/hivemq/log
            - hivemq-conf-volume:/opt/hivemq/conf

volumes:
    hivemq-data-volume:
    hivemq-log-volume:
    hivemq-conf-volume:

networks:
    network_name:

```

but when I start this with

```auto
docker-compose -f hivemq.yml up -d

```

I always obtain this result in stdout

```auto

I had the same issue.  
This was because I previously run the HiveMQ4 (enterprise edition).  
I just had to delete volumes and it runs like a charm.
