Unable to change default port

[vikram....@sysdig.com]

I am trying to launch prometheus in a docker container using the non standard port.  Instead of port 9090 I want to use 8000 (so like curl http://localhost:8000)  If I just issue the following command:

docker run -d -p 9090:9090  --label io.prometheus.scrape="true" --label io.prometheus.port="9090" -v ~/prometheus prom/prometheus

This works just fine.  But when I try to modify it slightly 

docker run -p 8000:8000  --label io.prometheus.scrape="true" --label io.prometheus.port="8000" -v /tmp//prometheus prom/prometheus --web.listen-address :8000

When I run that I get the following in the logs

I have added the --config.file=X but it still doesn't get it.  I am at a loss so I would appreciate any help

You probably want to include all the other flags that are needed in this setup:
