Error while deploying open source bitcoin exchange platform that uses ansimble

[Oleg Belousov]

This is the line with the error:

https://github.com/txbits/TxBitsDeployer/blob/master/playbook/group_vars/staging_testnet#L5

This is how the error looks like in the console:

fatal: [longcat.staging-testnet-txbits.com] => Syntax Error while loading YAML script, /home/user/dev/TxBitsDeployer/playbook/group_vars/staging_testnet

Note: The error may actually appear before this position: line 5, column 29

# for webservers

frontend_fqdn:             {{root_domain}}

                            ^

This one looks easy to fix.  YAML thought it was looking for the start of a 

hash/dictionary and was confused to see a second "{".  Most likely this was

meant to be an ansible template evaluation instead, so we have to give the 

parser a small hint that we wanted a string instead. The solution here is to 

just quote the entire value.

For instance, if the original line was:

    app_path: {{ base_path }}/foo

It should be written as:

    app_path: "{{ base_path }}/foo"

We could be wrong, but this one looks like it might be an issue with

missing quotes.  Always quote template expression brackets when they 

start a value. For instance:            

    with_items:

      - {{ foo }}

Should be written as:

    with_items:

      - "{{ foo }}"      

What I was trying to do is 

./initial_deploy.sh staging_testnet

In order to test the pipeline.

Thanks in advance.
