CDK-Validator Error on arm-based build server

[Zirkonium88]

Hey guys,

thank you for your efforts.

I used the policy_validation plugin in the following way on a arm-based EC2 (t4g.medium):

# app.py
app = App(
    policy_validation_beta1=[
        cfn_guard.CfnGuardValidator(control_tower_rules_enabled=True)
    ]
)
sample_stack = CdkSampleRepoStack(
    app,
    construct_id="CdkSampleRepoStack",
    stack_name="sample-stack",
    description="Sample Stack.",
    env=Environment(
        account=config.get_value("AccountId"),
        region=config.get_value("AWSRegion"),
    ),
)

The result within my build process looked like this:

{"title": "Validation Report", "pluginReports": [{"summary": {"pluginName": "cdk-validator-cfnguard", "status": "failure", "metadata": {"error": "Validation plugin 'cdk-validator-cfnguard' failed: \n CfnGuardValidator plugin failed processing cfn-guard results.\n Please create an issue [https://github.com/cdklabs/cdk-validator-cfnguard/issues/new\n](https://github.com/cdklabs/cdk-validator-cfnguard/issues/new%5Cn) Rule: ct-apigateway-pr-1.guard\n Error: Error: Command exited with status 2"}}, "violations": []}]}

After several ideas (e.g. ignoring rules), I changed the build server to a t3.medium (x86) and everything worked like a charm.

I think this is an issue of the plugin, as the CDK process worked on both servers.

Thanks again!

@Zirkonium88 sorry for not replying sooner. It looks like they just recently added release assets for arm. Once that is released we should be able to add support.
