running aws validate-template on the template vpn-cfn.yml gives an error concerning the template outputs

An error occurred (ValidationError) when calling the ValidateTemplate operation: Template format error: Output Name is malformed. The Name field of every Export member must be specified and consist only of alphanumeric characters, colons, or hyphens.

Thanks for reaching out. Can you please let me know the command you ran and on what file? I ran the following command and I didn't see any issues:

$ aws cloaws cloudformation validate-template --template-body file://vpc.cfn.yml
$ aws cloudformation validate-template --template-body file://templates/vpc.cfn.yml
