Receiving a 'Could not parse dbt_project.yml' error in dbt job
The error message Could not parse dbt_project.yml: while scanning for...
in your dbt job run or development usually occurs for several reasons:
- There's a parsing failure in a YAML file (such as a tab indentation or Unicode characters).
- Your
dbt_project.yml
file has missing fields or incorrect formatting. - Your
dbt_project.yml
file doesn't exist in your dbt project repository.
To resolve this issue, consider the following:
- Use an online YAML parser or validator to check for any parsing errors in your YAML file. Some known parsing errors include missing fields, incorrect formatting, or tab indentation.
- Or ensure your
dbt_project.yml
file exists.
Once you've identified the issue, you can fix the error and rerun your dbt job.
