When deploying to Elasticbeanstalk, my deploy fails with a parsing error caused by a .config file i have in the .ebextension folder, but it seems ok to me. Anyone can tell me how to fix it? The .config file looks like this:

files:
   "/opt/elasticbeanstalk/hooks/appdeploy/post/01_copy_htaccess_after_deployment.sh":
     mode: "000755",
     owner: root,
     group: root,
     content: |
       yes | /bin/cp /var/app/current/.htaccess.new /var/app/current/.htaccess

And the error:

The configuration file .ebextensions/08_htaccess_create_script_post_deploy.config in application version git-bce52a5381c7ac6735249419c48b1fe116168610-1494415808045 contains invalid YAML or JSON. YAML exception: Invalid Yaml: while parsing a block mapping in "", line 3, column 10: mode: "000755", ^ expected , but found FlowEntry in "", line 3, column 24: mode: "000755", ^ , JSON exception: Invalid JSON: Unexpected character (f) at position 0.. Update the configuration file.

according to the aws dcumentation you dont need to use comas behind mode owner and group. so your yml config file should look like this:

files:
   "/opt/elasticbeanstalk/hooks/appdeploy/post/01_copy_htaccess_after_deployment.sh":
     mode: "000755"
     owner: root
     group: root
     content: |
       yes | /bin/cp /var/app/current/.htaccess.new /var/app/current/.htaccess

and here is an example of the syntax

files:  
  "target file location on disk": 
     mode: "six-digit octal value"
     owner: name of owning user for file
     group: name of owning group for file
     source: URL
     authentication: authentication name:

  "target file location on disk": 
     mode: "six-digit octal value"
     owner: name of owning user for file
     group: name of owning group for file
     content: |
    this is my content
     encoding: encoding format
     authentication: authentication name:
