CREATE_FAILED deploying OpenVidu CE

Hi,

I followed the tutorial to deploy a OpenVidu CE on AWS with let’s encrypt and my domain. However the creation failed with this status reason:

The following resource(s) failed to create: [WaitCondition].

What can I do to workd around this issue? Below are the log files I could gather. I just couldn’t get the docker-compose logs because I had the following error message when I applied the command ‘docker-compose logs -f’:

ERROR:
Can’t find a suitable configuration file in this directory or any
parent. Are you in the right directory?

   Supported filenames: docker-compose.yml, docker-compose.yaml

How can I proceed to solve this problem?

cloud-init.log
cloud-init-output.log

Parameters:

Thank you!

After reading carefully the logs I could understand what might have happened.

Reading the docker compose logs it was telling me:

Property OPENVIDU_SECRET is not set. Cannot be empty.

But I have set the password with the following string: }2/Nsqkj})rfE%

So I presumed there might have something with the password. I changed to a simpler one, and it worked nicely!

If this is indeed the problem, it would be nice to clarify what special characters are allowed.

In anyway, hope this may be helpful if someone has the same problem I had.

I will investigate that. It seems to be a problem whit special characters when the SECRET is replaced in the .env file.
