Latest version initial run and auto config error

[CyberBitz]

First time, downloaded and ran with auto setup, I am getting this error:

Describe the bug
Initialized the autoconfig and this is the error after it runs

Loaded config: C:..........\BGPMonitor\config.yml

Provide an example
Provide an example in terms of prefixes and BGP messages. Possibly provide a snippet of config.yml and prefixes.yml.

Expected behavior
provide an output that does not result in an error

Are you using the binary or the source code?
I downloaded the bgpalerter-win-x64.exe

From the error it looks like a config file is corrupted. Possibly an AS number in prefixes.yml.
I cannot reproduce the issue without more information: please, when opening an issue, don't wipe the bug report template.

Thanks, I will run a few tests and post the configs

This is with the 10421 AS. I changed the extension from yml to log for uploading
config.log

prefixes.log

The error log file contains:

Thanks! I was able to reproduce it with your prefixes.yml. I made a patch that improves the validation of the prefixes.yml file, in particular the new downstreams/upstreams part.

Please, replace your executable with the one of v1.28.1. Let me know if you have any other problem.

Thanks for reporting.

[CyberBitz]

Awesome, thanks.

For whoever else has this issue with v1.28.0: open prefixes.yml and remove the "[]" in the downtreams/upstreams section
