Error during bosh deploy: "Arguments are not correct, details: 'expected string value for member 1 of key values of member 1 of option filters"

Question

I try to deploy simple example. I didn't change anything except warden.yml file. So, I tried to deploy it to AWS and use elastic IP, so I can access the server with specific IP.

When I deploy it I receive:

Director task 67
Deprecation: Ignoring cloud config. Manifest contains 'networks' section.

  Started preparing deployment > Preparing deployment. Done (00:00:00)

  Started preparing package compilation > Finding packages to compile. Done (00:00:00)

  Started creating missing vms > webapp/3a8acd3a-77a8-4bad-8de4-fb544d70f76d (0). Failed: Unknown CPI error 'InvalidCall' with message 'Arguments are not correct, details: 'expected string value for member 1 of key values of member 1 of option filters'' in 'create_vm' CPI method (00:00:05)

Error 100: Unknown CPI error 'InvalidCall' with message 'Arguments are not correct, details: 'expected string value for member 1 of key values of member 1 of option filters'' in 'create_vm' CPI method

What is the reason of this error?

Answer 1

This error is coming because there is an missing properties in network configuration. Provides the subnet id and try it. it will work.
