Hello :)

During registering app after 'forge create' following error appears:

Error: The manifest.yml file is not a valid YAML. Fix it and try again.

How to run 'forge create' again with new manifest.yml? I know how to update the file to be valid YAML but don't know how to put it into creation process. Restarting it with 'forge register' works but when using 'forge deploy' it returns error with empty folder. Please help.

Kind regards

Darek

Hi @darisz

It looks like you've run into an issue where the manifest.yml wasn't generated correctly on disk. 

Could you try updating to the latest version of the Forge CLI (`npm install -g @forge/cli@latest`) and trying to create a fresh app in a new directory?

If you're still running into problems I'd suggest raising a developer support request at https://go.atlassian.com/ECOHELP and we can assist.

cheers,

Tim
