Hello,

I'm at step 9 (Add SAP Fiori Elements Risks application) of this tutorial: https://developers.sap.com/tutorials/btp-app-launchpad-service.html

I have error when I add add deployment configuration:

also I share mta.yaml just in case

Hi dawonbaek,

You have entered wrong information on your MTA.

1) Make sure you are using NodeJS version 16

2) Duplicate entries for xsuaa resource. On your MTA you a module definition at line 47

And on line 57 you have it again with additional configuration for the same module type.

Recommendation: remove the duplicate entry from line 47

3) Update the requires clause for module 'cpapp-srv' on your MTA.yaml by replacing the deleted instance named 'cpapp-auth' with the instance 'cpapp-uaa'.

4) Then on line 93 you have a module definition of type 'CONTENT' which should be under session 'modules' instead of 'resources'.

Recommendation: Move the module named 'cpapp-destinations' below the session modules and above the session resources on your mta.yaml file.

5) Open the packages.json from both app modules (risks and mititgations) and change the devDependencies with the following:

"devDependencies": {
	"@ui5/cli": "^2.14.9",
	"@ui5/fs": "^2.0.6",
	"@ui5/logger": "^2.0.1",
	"@sap/ux-ui5-tooling": "1",
	"rimraf": "3.0.2",
	"@sap/ux-specification": "latest"
}

Once you have the above changes implemented, you will be able to run the commands from the tutorial without any issues.

Best regards,
Ivan

Hello Ivan,

I edited mta.yaml and packages.json as you told me so, but I still see the same error.

here I pushed my code with the comment of 'deployment configuration error'

https://github.com/keg9999/CAPdemo

with many thanks,

Dawon

Hi dawonbaek,

The error message is kind of clear to me 🙂

the "/temp/671a3485a5eeeb4cb35dc1f8d811d954.temp.mta.yaml" file is not a valid MTA descriptor: yaml: line 54: did not find expected '-' indicator

If you open that file, the line 54 has an indentation error. It has a 3-space indentation whereas it should have 4 because it is subordinate to the module 'cpapp-destinations'. My yaml editor has indicated me that this line was expecting a '-' which is correct, since its position is related to a new module declaration and instead it found a and followed by a character (which is the error on your yaml file).

I use the RedHat YAML Editor on my VSCode to prevent such errors while editing yaml:

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=redhat.vscode-yaml

Once installed, open the original MTA.yaml file at the root of the project on VSCode and you should see the error like so:

Once you fix the indentation on this module, it should be fixing the issue overall.

If not, please check the repository for this sample application and compare it to what you have currently on your filesystem.

https://github.com/SAP-samples/cloud-cap-risk-management/blob/launchpad-service/mta.yaml

NOTE: the above URL refers to the branch for the same exercise you are on. If you progress on your exercise, you should search for the corresponding branch to lookup the files.

Best regards,
Ivan

I copied the unformatted mta.yaml, formatted it using 'redhat.vscode-yaml' formatter and then copied it to 'mta.yaml' and the temp '*.yaml', and it was fixed.
