Please note that YAML must be consistently indented using spaces

ActiveRecord::Fixture::FormatError: a YAML error occurred parsing /Users/benwong/Desktop/ruby/rails_projects/treebook/test/fixtures/users.yml. Please note that YAML must be consistently indented using spaces. Tabs are not allowed. Please have a look at http://www.yaml.org/faq.html The exact error was: Psych::SyntaxError: (<unknown>): found character that cannot start any token while scanning for the next token at line 2 column 1

I get this error. This happened in the fixture video and I tried to ignore it. But it seems like a persistent thing. Please advise. Thanks
