# Error calling module- error rendering imported module 'pipeline/....module.json'- invalid character

### Issue <a href="#issue" id="issue"></a>

The Dinghy webhook can return the following syntax on Pull requests: (template: dinghy-render:29:7: executing “dinghy-render” at >module “pipeline/…module.json”>: error calling module: error rendering imported module ‘pipeline/…module.json’:invalid character after object key:value pair)

The logs will show the following:

```

time="2021-09-01T17:36:13Z" level=info msg="Skipping Spinnaker pipeline update because this branch (testing-error) is not master. Proceeding as validation."

However Dinghyfile and module syntax is validated with the [ARM-CLI tool](https://docs.armory.io/docs/spinnaker-user-guides/dinghy-arm-cli/) to be valid.  For example:
>arm dinghy render dinghyfile –modules ../dinghy-templates >> /dev/null

INFO [2021-09-02 08:40:17] [Parsing dinghyfile]

INFO [2021-09-02 08:40:17] [Parsing final dinghyfile to struct for validation]
INFO [2021-09-02 08:40:17] [Output:

INFO [2021-09-02 08:40:17] [Final dinghyfile is a valid JSON Object.]
```

### Cause <a href="#cause" id="cause"></a>

This error is as a result of the `strict validator` that has been introduced in v.2.26.2+: <https://docs.armory.io/docs/release-notes/rn-armory-spinnaker/armoryspinnaker_v2-26-2/#strict-json-validation>
