When I start up my docker compose project all services quickly jump to the ‘status’ Started which seems normal (docker compose up -d --build). However I have one service which stays in Waiting forever.
However when I look at the output of docker ps it shows the service in the Up state (like all the others) and I can also look that the logs and they show what I expect.

Now I am confused what the status shown by the docker up -d command really indicates and what it is dependent on so I can further investigate my problem. I have not found anything specific in the docs yet and also my investigations have been unsuccessful so far (I tried adding a health-check).
