Hi Chuan,
I'm glad that you've been able to get things working :D
For the benefit of others that have had this problem (there have been a
couple in the past) would you please give us a bit more detail as to
exactly what the problem was and how you solved it?
You said you had the wrong AMI type? I'm confused by this. Do you mean
S3 vs EBS backed AMIs or you just simply had the wrong AMI ids? Were you
using the StarCluster public AMIs?
Thanks!
~Justin
