Hi,

My role seems to be taking a very long time to import from github to galaxy. I have the right syntax in the meta file. Can someone please let me know what could be the reason for it taking such a long time to import?

Thanks,

It looks like the import process does not like the tag ‘new-relic’ found in meta/main.yml. Tags should only contain alphanumeric characters.

It should just skip over the tag and continue importing the role, so there is a bug in that regard. For now, please try removing ‘new-relic’ and re-importing the role.

I will remove that right away and try it.

Thanks,
