Running a .config file on Elastic Beanstalk?

amazon-elastic-beanstalk, amazon-web-services, yaml

Solution

Got the answer. Apparently whitespace is important. I changed:

container_commands:
        01_setup_apache:
        command: "cp .ebextensions/enable_mod_deflate.conf 
/etc/httpd/conf.d/enable_mod_deflate.conf"

to:

container_commands:
        01_setup_apache:
            command: "cp .ebextensions/enable_mod_deflate.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/enable_mod_deflate.conf"

and now it works.

Problem

I'm trying to run a custom .config file on my elastic beanstalk. I'm following the directions on this link. I've created a file called `myapp.config`, and put the following in it: ``` container_commands: 01_setup_apache: command: "cp .ebextensions/enable_mod_deflate.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/enable_mod_deflate.conf" ``` When I run this, I get the following error: "commands" in configuration file .ebextensions/myapp.config in application version myapp-0.0.33-SNAPSHOT must be a map. Update "commands" in the configuration file. This error is really cryptic. What am I doing wrong? My container is apache tomcat 7.
