Why won’t this work? I need to pass environment variables from my laptop’s CLI to the provisioner, so that they can be printed out by the test_script.sh script

But I’m getting this error message instead:

Error: Failed preparing provisioner-block "shell" ""

  on jenkins-slave-ami.pkr.hcl line 87:
  (source code not available)

render 'environment_vars': template: root:1:20: executing "root" at <user
