Failed to Delete Appliance

Open bobthacker opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I received this message when attempting to delete an appliance: UNABLE TO CHECK STATUS Delete task failed: CloudBridgeBaseException: Unable to locate credentials from exception type: <class 'botocore.exceptions.NoCredentialsError'>

It is puzzling, because I also cannot see the appliance in my EC2 account, but I am being charged for it.

Update: I was able to find this instance in another region on my EC2 account and terminate it. However, attempting to delete the instance inside the cloudlaunch interface failed prior to terminating inside EC2.

It would be helpful to notify users the region in which their appliance is located.

The unable to check status message occurs because you didn't select to store the credentials on CloudLaunch, hence it cannot check the status of the instance.

The region in which the resources are created is something you select on the first page of the launch process, although displaying it on the list of instances page could certainly be added and useful.
