This is known issue with docker client 19.03.09. It happens if the daemon version supports only max api-version 1.39. Client is not downgrading the API version to match the server supported version automatically. It should be fixed in 19.03.10.

As a workaround, you can set the docker api version using following environment variable.

export DOCKER_API_VERSION=1.39
