VOLTTRON Central Agent Showing status of 1 about volttron-docker HOT 2 CLOSED

The agent configuration for this Volttron Central Agent is an yaml file that has no yaml objects, not even an empty object. Because the config file is empty, the Volttron platform is returning a NoneType for the 'config' object, thus failing this installation when the agent code is trying to get a property on a None object. To resolve this, ensure that the Volttron Agent config file has at least an empty dictionary.

I uncommented the VOLTTRON Central Agent code in the platform_config.yml file and when I run vctl status I am getting a status of 1. Searching through the logs I found the following error:

@judymin88 Try adding your own Volttron config file and using it for the agent config for Volttron Central Agent. See my solution in #51
