It is telling you that your yaml is invalid, from looking at the snippet
you have provided it looks like the seed_provider.parameters is not
correctly indented, it should look something like:
seed_provider:
- class_name: org.apache.cassandra.locator.SimpleSeedProvider
parameters:
- seeds: "192.168.1.32"
