AWS Django EB Deployment Config File

First of all, I was not able to install EB 3.X tools, I had SSL_Socket issues which I was not able to resolve after two days, therefore I went with an older version:

eb --version
AWS Elastic Beanstalk Command Line Interface v2.6.4

Anyhow, I have setup my Elastic Beanstalk environment and followed the tutorial online, however with my own little Django app.

I would like to deploy my application to my EB with my RDS Database, which I created via the AWS console in the browser.

This is what happens:

[bs@debian-gohan:]~/htdocs/vhosts/prepage $ git aws.push
Updating the AWS Elastic Beanstalk environment prepage-env...
Environment update initiated successfully.

However, the console dashboard shows me an error:

The configuration file .ebextensions/.config in application version git-c4223692a920aeae2cbe7403b618971f1bfcc61a-1420581186610 contains invalid YAML or JSON. YAML exception: while parsing a block collection in "<reader>", line 7, column 5: - namespace: aws:elasticbeanstal ... ^ expected <block end>, but found Key in "<reader>", line 8, column 5: option_name: WSGIPath ^ , JSON exception: Unexpected character (c) at position 0.. Update the configuration file.

In addition to:

[bs@debian-gohan:]~/htdocs/vhosts/prepage $ eb update
If you udpate your environment, your RDS DB Instance will be deleted and you will lose your data.
Update environment? [y/n]: y
warning: Namespace "aws:rds:dbinstance", Option name "DBUser"
    Changes to option DBUser settings will not take effect immediately. Your RDS instance will be replaced and your new settings will take effect then.
error: Namespace "aws:rds:dbinstance", Option name "DBPassword"
    Missing value for required parameter: AWSEBDBPassword

My config file looks like this:

container_commands:
  01_syncdb:
    command: "django-admin.py syncdb --noinput"
    leader_only: true

option_settings:
  - namespace: aws:elasticbeanstalk:container:python
    option_name: WSGIPath
    value: prepage/wsgi.py
  - option_name: DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE
    value: prepage.settings
  - option_name: DBUser
    value: username
  - option_name: DBPassword
    value: pass

If I do a status:

[bs@debian-gohan:]~/htdocs/vhosts/prepage $ eb status --verbose

I am not sure what the problem is, does it start with the fact, that I am using an older version of the eb tools ?
