<div>Hello!</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you for all the work you put in to creating StarCluster. I am rather new to EC computing, so I was trying to follow the quickstart guide religiously, and ran into a snag when I was creating the keypair.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I used:</div><div><br></div><div>starcluster createkey mykey -o ~/.ssh/mykey.rsa</div><div><br></div><div>and got this error at first:</div><div><br></div><div><div>fedev@UbuntuHome:~$ starcluster createkey mykey -o ~/.ssh/mykey.rsa</div>
<div>StarCluster - (<a href="http://web.mit.edu/starcluster">http://web.mit.edu/starcluster</a>) (v. 0.93.3)</div><div>Software Tools for Academics and Researchers (STAR)</div><div>Please submit bug reports to <a href="mailto:starcluster@mit.edu">starcluster@mit.edu</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>!!! ERROR - output directory does not exist</div></div><div><br></div><div>I manually created the .ssh directory, and reran the command:</div><div><br></div><div><div>fedev@UbuntuHome:~$ starcluster createkey amazonkey</div>
<div>StarCluster - (<a href="http://web.mit.edu/starcluster">http://web.mit.edu/starcluster</a>) (v. 0.93.3)</div><div>Software Tools for Academics and Researchers (STAR)</div><div>Please submit bug reports to <a href="mailto:starcluster@mit.edu">starcluster@mit.edu</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>!!! ERROR - UnauthorizedOperation: You are not authorized to perform this operation.</div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Next, I tried Issuing the same command with sudo, but it didn't help at all and I got the same error.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Any clue what might be causing it? Google searches are not particularly helpful (or, I cannot figure out how they are related to my current problem).</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you very much!</div>
<div><br></div><div>Federico</div><div><br></div><div>PS</div><div>I am currently running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS</div>
