I'm new to AWS and I'm trying to deploy Kubernetes for some tutorial purposes using kops.
For that, I'm using a trial AWS account and I started following this practical guide to do it but I have an issue with this command :
kops create cluster --node-count=2 --node-size=t2.medium --zones=us-east-1awhich gives me the following error :
I0119 16:14:49.647701 13949 create_cluster.go:517] Inferred --cloud=aws from zone "eu-west-3a"
error populating configuration: error querying for valid AZs in "eu-west-3" - verify your AWS credentials. Error: UnauthorizedOperation: You are not authorized to perform this operation.
status code: 403, request id: a1f6e99f-76d6-4c3f-95bb-416cc2d67f2eI wonder if it's not related to some limited access due to my trial AWS account !
Looks like AWS credentials are not properly setup, verify them with e.g.:
$ aws sts get-caller-identity
{
"Account": "<number>",
"UserId": "AI...",
"Arn": "arn:aws:iam::<number>:user/<user>"
}
The problem was that I don't have enough rights to do it since my user had only AmazonS3FullAccess.
Now I added :
AmazonEC2FullAccess
AmazonRoute53FullAccess
IAMFullAccess
AmazonVPCFullAccess
