Message "error: error parsing mongodb-deployment.yaml: error converting YAML to JSON: yaml: line 27: did not find expected key"

7/27/2021

I am doing a lab about Kubernetes. I have created the YAML file, but when I am trying to deploy it in a shell, it shows me this error:

error: error parsing mongodb-deployment.yaml: error converting YAML to JSON: yaml: line 27: did not find expected key

This is the YAML file for MongoDB for Kubernetes:

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
 name: mongodb-deployment
 labels:
   app: mongodb
spec:
  replicas: 1
  selector:
   matchLabels:
     app: mongodb
   template:
     metadata:
       labels:
         app: mongodb
     spec:
       containers:
       - name: mongodb
         image: mongo
         ports:
         - containerPort: 27017
         env:
         - name: MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME
           valueFROM:
             secretKeyRef:
                name: mongodb-secret
                key: mongo-root-username
         - name: MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD
           valueFROM:
             secretKeyRef:
                name: mongodb-secret
                key: mongo-root-password

valueFROM is changed to valueFrom. Also, template was under selector, so I moved template out of selector, so it would be under spec.

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
 name: mongodb-deployment
 labels:
   app: mongodb
spec:
  replicas: 1
  selector:
   matchLabels:
     app: mongodb
  template:  #this and all the following lines are moved 2 places left.
