install issues

[hounded]

Hi trying to install couple of issues

running launch stack can't access your bucket

Template validation error: S3 error: Access Denied For more information check http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/ErrorResponses.html

running make file make deploy SAM_S3_BUCKET=mybucket AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=ap-southeast-2

Makefile:81: *** SAM_S3_BUCKET variable is not set. Set it as environment variable or as command line argument.. Stop.

Hello, did you try to set the bucket name to something unique? S3 bucket names should be globally unique. mybucket is just an example and most probably somebody already registered a bucket with this name, and you don't have access to that existing bucket. The standard way to find a unique bucket name is to use the DNS format, i.e. mybucket.mycompany.com, for example in our case I use sam-templates.neosperience.com as bucket name. Let me know if this helps.

Also, the AWS account you use with the AWS CLI should have a role that allows you to create new buckets and put objects in it.

Hi Cheers for answering, yeah I got that, created the bucket, bucket exists. Sorry I just used mybucket as in the example.

Yeah got all the permissions on the account. It just doesn't run, I have switched to greengo until I can get this to work

Did you try the one click install i.e. just clicking on the “Launch stack” button? That way you don’t even have to use the Makefile.

The other thing you can try is to set the bucket name as an environment variable:

$ export SAM_S3_BUCKET=mybucket.mycompany.com
$ export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=ap-southeast-2
$ make deploy

Yeah I did try that also, I have another question for you as you are up to speed with ggc

Thank your feedback, I opened another issue for the "access denied" error when using the "Launch stack" button: #2 that is now fixed.

There seems to be some other problems with the Makefile, too. It now crashes with make: *** No rule to make target `Pipfile', needed by `dist/Pipenv'. Stop. when running make deploy AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=eu-west-1 SAM_S3_BUCKET=tp-vlk-grssfrmt for example.

I'm no expert when it comes to make, but I think it has something to do with the recent changes where among other things the Pipfile was removed. Adding .PHONY: Pipfile on line 46 gets us a bit further, but it also seems that any commands that would create the Pipfile have been removed here https://github.com/Neosperience/GrassFormation/commit/146c23f672803f501cd7f605070e68755c791662#diff-b67911656ef5d18c4ae36cb6741b7965 So now _package fails with
