Can't start patroni service

See original GitHub issue

sudo vi /etc/patroni/config.yml

zookeeper:
  hosts: [zk1:2181, zk2:2181, zk3:2181] #this is line 8 in below

start service failed:

I don’t have any clue why patroni can’t start, it indicate that some wrong with zookeeper connection string, but from patroni nodes (pt1, pt2) I can totally connect to zk nodes:

echo "ruok" | nc zk1 2181; echo
