I get a very cryptic error on this yml file

Error parsing appveyor.yml: Value can be either string or "secure" string. (Line: 40, Column: 5)

This is where the error is happening:

https://ci.appveyor.com/project/ericoporto/lib-allegro-pwruw/builds/21410112

The appveyor.yml is here

https://github.com/ericoporto/lib-allegro/blob/allegro-4.4.2-agspatch/appveyor.yml

   Agree that error text may look not straightforward enough. As you see in line 40 you listed artifact files. here is a copy-paste from the doc:

   The value could be comma-delimited list of artifact’s file name, deployment name or regular expression matching one of these.
   

   So in your case it should be comma-delimited list of artifact’s file name.
