OK, so you've mistakenly edited the compose itself, however as it says in the comments at the top of the compose:
version: '3.9'
services:
olivetin: # This docker-compose typically requires no editing. Use the Environment variables section of Portainer to set your values.
To fix this you need to stop the OliveTin stack, and paste in the current compose. This is designed not to be edited, as any values specific to your installation are reflected in the Environment variables section:
Here's the current compose from this post:

All of the Docker Composes in the above post are designed to work this same way. The compose is designed to be static, with only the env vars changing. This makes it extremely easy to identify what's specific to your installation, and to update a compose when needed.
