Rasa: Loading domain from 'domain.yml' failed. Using empty domain.

[Nitkap]

Rasa version:1.9.4

Rasa SDK version (if used & relevant):1.9.0

Rasa X version (if used & relevant):

Python version:3.7

Operating system (windows, osx, ...): Windows 10

Issue:
Hey!
Whenever I try to run my rasa project , I get an error stating that there are duplicate keys in yaml file and it takes the empty domain file

Error (including full traceback):

c:\users\nitik\appdata\local\programs\python\python37\lib\site-packages\rasa\utils\common.py:351: UserWarning: Loading domain from 'domain.yml' failed. Using empty domain. Error: 'The provided yaml file contains a duplicated key: 'while constructing a mapping
  in "<unicode string>", line 25, column 3
found duplicate key "-text" with value "Hi.My name is medicare locator. How can I help you today ?" (original value: "Hello. I am a medicare locator. I can help you find nearest hospital. How can I help ?")
  in "<unicode string>", line 43, column 3

To suppress this check see:
    http://yaml.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#duplicate-keys

Duplicate keys will become an error in future releases, and are errors
by default when using the new API.
'. You can use http://www.yamllint.com/ to validate the yaml syntax of your file.'

Command or request that led to error:

Add spaces between - and text for utter_how_can_i_help and utter_ask_location. You can check any errors in your yaml with the provided links in the error message, or found here.

This looks like it might be an older example bot -- I'd recommend using the examples in the repo itself.

Just as well -- I don't think you'd want to have action_facility_search as a response, as those are response templates the bot will use in predicting responses to user messages, you'll want to add a new section in the file with below:

actions:
- action_facility_search
