----------------------------------------

             Summary: Unhelpful error messages when attempting to submit malformed .aurora
                 Key: AURORA-1198
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AURORA-1198
             Project: Aurora
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Hussein Elgridly
            Priority: Minor


Because I'm a stupid programmer, I did this:

{code oops.aurora}
my_ps = Process( name = "my_ps", ...snip... )
my_task = Task( name = "my_task", ...snip... )
my_job = Job( name = "my_job", ...snip... )

#This line should be jobs = [ my_job ], but I'm a stupid programmer who makes mistakes sometimes.
jobs = [ my_task ]
{code}

And then I try to submit it, and get this:

{code}
$ aurora job create cluster/role/devel/my_job oops.aurora
Error executing command: Error loading configuration: Task has no attribute cluster
{code}

So then I go hunting in the documentation to see where Task requires the attribute cluster, because I've never had to add it before, and only realise my error ten minutes later.

TLDR: Less misleading error messages please.
