<div>I thought the problem might be because I was trying to start an Anaconda cluster using <a href="https://github.com/ContinuumIO/anaconda-ec2" target="_blank">https://github.com/ContinuumIO/anaconda-ec2</a> but I tried spinning up a vanilla StarCluster just now and had the same problem. I also thought that it might be one of the packages causing a problem, but even when I reduced it to just g++ I got the same error. Any thoughts on how to fix would be greatly appreciated.<span class=""><font color="#888888"><br clear="all">
