Lab6: Error with cryptogen when adding a new org

matisalimba · December 2021

The problem happen while doing Lab 6 and executting:

cryptogen extend --config=./crypto-config.yaml

I get error:

Error reading config: Error Unmarshaling YAML: yaml: line 85: mapping values are not allowed in this context

I've tried yaml linters, several, and the yaml is valid. I've tried the file provided by the course and still getting the same error.

I tried attaching my crypto-config.yaml to this post but it exceeds allowed characters. Any clues?

@matisalimba, Let's see if we can work through these issues. It looks like there is an issue with your YAML file. Check your line spacing and syntax. Here is a link to a conversation with others experiencing similar issues.

Let me know how this turns out. Bobbi

@Bobbijn Thanks. I already tried those stackoverflow articles. I parsed my yaml file through many yaml linters, and it's always valid.

Ok, I just found the error, it was a typo con crypto-config.yaml:

  - Name: Org2
    Domain: org2.example.com
    EnableNodeOUs: true
    Template:
      Count: 2
    Users:
      Count: 1

I had place 2 next to Template (Template: 2).

Thanks.
