’‘’NoneType’‘ object has no attribute ‘’iteritems’‘’

When running a workflow I get:

[test@st2 workflows]$ st2 run example.my_check
.
id: 5ce24f5152364c6d5cb1d957
action.ref: example.my_check
parameters: None
status: failed
start_timestamp: Mon, 20 May 2019 06:55:13 UTC
end_timestamp: Mon, 20 May 2019 06:55:13 UTC
result: 
  errors:
  - message: '''NoneType'' object has no attribute ''iteritems'''
  output: null

This is an issue with indentation of yaml. Ensure that you are showing whitespace in your editor and that you are looking at example workflows like example.orquesta-basic.

TemplateAssertionError: no filter named ‘’decrypt_kv’‘’

When running a workflow I get: 'JinjaEvaluationException: Unable to evaluate expression ''{{ st2kv.my_pass | decrypt_kv }}''. TemplateAssertionError: no filter named ''decrypt_kv'''

I get context errors where variables do not exist when running my workflow

result: 
  errors:
  - message: 'YaqlEvaluationException: Unable to resolve key ''stdout'' in expression ''<% result().stdout %>'' from context.'
    route: 0
    task_id: task1
    task_transition_id: noop__t0
    type: error
  - message: 'YaqlEvaluationException: Unable to resolve key ''stderr'' in expression ''<% result().stderr %>'' from context.'
    route: 0
    task_id: task1
    task_transition_id: noop__t0
    type: error
  - message: 'YaqlEvaluationException: Unable to evaluate expression ''<% ctx(stdout) %>''. VariableUndefinedError: The variable "stdout" is undefined.'
    type: error
  output: null

This was created with the following workflow:

---
version: 1.0

description: A basic workflow that runs the vdc check with hardcoded parameters from chatops.

tasks:
  task1:
    action: core.remote
    input:
        cmd: "xxxx"
    next:
      - when: <% succeeded() %>
        publish:
          - stdout: <% result().stdout %>
          - stderr: <% result().stderr %>

output:
  - stdout: <% ctx(stdout) %>

I changed the when condition and just used stdout as the output, not the best but it worked:

---

description: A basic workflow that runs the vdc check with hardcoded parameters from chatops.

tasks:
  task1:
    action: core.remote
    input:
        cmd: "xxyy"
    next:
      - publish:
          - stdout: <% result() %>

output:
  - stdout: <% ctx(stdout) %>

The result of the workflow:

result: 
  output:
    stdout:
      host:
        failed: false
        return_code: 0
        stderr: "xxx"
        stdout: 'yyy'
        succeeded: true
