[Starcluster] bug report

[Justin Riley]

Hi Xiren,

Your [key] section must have the same name as your keypair on Amazon. You can check the names of your keypairs either by using the AWS Management Console or the ec2-describe-keypairs command from the EC2 API command line tools. I've added this to the docs for the next version.

Hope that helps,

~Justin

Starting a starcluster failed, because of key "not valid". But the reason is unknown.

in configuration file:

[key myKey]

key_location = /root/.ssh/id_rsa

....

cluster_user=root


Then got the error message:

cluster.py:768 - ERROR - Account does not contain a key with keyname = myKey.

cl.py:243 - ERROR - setting for cluster template "smallcluster" are not valid


Thanks,

Best regards,

Hongyuan
