Having trouble solving these errors on my template for AWS.

Here are my errors:

WobblelandSecurityGroup CREATE_FAILED Value of property GroupName must be of type String

PrivateSubnet CREATE_FAILED Properties validation failed for resource PrivateSubnet with message: #/AvailabilityZone: expected type: String, found: JSONArray

InternetGateway CREATE_FAILED Properties validation failed for resource InternetGateway with message: #: extraneous key [KeyName] is not permitted

Here is my template:

CodePudding user response:

You have three different errors.


For the first one:

WobblelandSecurityGroup CREATE_FAILED Value of property GroupName must be of type String

this is because the GroupName property has an incorrect type; I imagine you want:

  GroupName: !Join
    - "-"
    - - Wobbleland-security-group
      - dev

For the second one:

PrivateSubnet CREATE_FAILED Properties validation failed for resource PrivateSubnet with message: #/AvailabilityZone: expected type: String, found: JSONArray

this is because the AvailabilityZone property has an incorrect type; I imagine you want:

AvailabilityZone: !Select [ 0, !GetAZs ]

For the third one:

InternetGateway CREATE_FAILED Properties validation failed for resource InternetGateway with message: #: extraneous key [KeyName] is not permitted

this is because KeyName is not a valid property for this resource. You can find out more about which keys resources support from the documentation; in this case, this page.
