Continuing the discussion from [Error executing command "./launcher rebuild app"](https://meta.discourse.org/t/error-executing-command-launcher-rebuild-app/199017):

Seeing a topic I created a little over a year ago  
I realize that the problem I had at that time could have been easily solved, however nobody noticed it, if you look at the original post the app.yml file has a small error and it is that one of the plugins does not have at the end the “.git” and this apparently was all the problem I had, I share this because although it seems simple, it could be happening to many at the time I “solved” it by uploading another “app.yml” file that was not “corrupt” , but apparently it simply did not have the line that was added to the last plugin, therefore it worked without problems, at the time it seemed strange to me that a text editor like sublime text corrupted the file, taking into account that it is the one that always use to edit server files had never had any problems.

```plaintext
## Plugins go here
## see https://meta.discourse.org/t/19157 for details
hooks:
  after_code:
    - exec:
        cd: $home/plugins
        cmd:
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/docker_manager.git
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/discourse-voting

```

In short, I share it only as an anecdote and probably this can solve the problems of some.

And has something similar ever happened to you? That a “blunder” error has been caused by something as simple as the lack of a point or a parenthesis, etc.
