Sail problem "no configuration file provided: not found"

trying to launch a laravel project with sail: ~/Documents/__laravel_projects/testApp$ ./vendor/bin/sail up

I get this error message: no configuration file provided: not found

versions: Ubuntu 22.04, Laravel Framework 9.20.0, Docker Desktop 4.10.1

Does anyone know how to fix the problem. Thanks!

Do you have a docker-compose.yml file in laravel root directory? Try to run

php artisan sail:install
