Problem when running cardano node on aws

Question

i have troubles running the cardano node on aws. After downloading the node config files and running the node, i get this failure:

AesonException "Error in $: parsing PartialNodeConfiguration failed, expected Object, but encountered String" cardano-node: Aeson exception: Error in $: parsing PartialNodeConfiguration failed, expected Object, but encountered String

Could someone help me how to solve that?

Thanks!

Yes, i got the solution. When downloading the files directly using curl or wget command, i go the parsing error.

So i created the files manually using the touch command and inserted the content of the configuration with copy paste using vim linux command. It looks strange but it works like this.

Also i have done the same thing on my mac machine.
