Elastic Beanstalk - '.ebextensions/02_setup.config' - Contains invalid key: '03_wsgipass'

Question

Using this guide to try to deploy my django app which uses channels: https://medium.com/@elspanishgeek/how-to-deploy-django-channels-2-x-on-aws-elastic-beanstalk-8621771d4ff0

This is my 02_setup.config

container_commands:
  00_pip_upgrade:
    command: "source /opt/python/run/venv/bin/activate && pip install --upgrade pip"
    ignoreErrors: false
  01_migrate:
    command: "django-admin.py migrate"
    leader_only: true
  02_collectstatic:
    command: "django-admin.py collectstatic --noinput"
03_wsgipass:
    command: 'echo "WSGIPassAuthorization On" >> ../wsgi.conf'

When running eb create django-env I get:

What's wrong with the 03_wsgipass command?

Answer 1

The indentation of 03_wsgipass is incorrect. Thus EB wants to use it as a new section in your config file, rather then a part of container_commands .
