[StarCluster] authentication error

[Justin Riley]

Hi Jonathan,

Were you able to get things working? If not make sure you don't have quotes around the values for aws_access_key_id and aws_secret_access_key. Also, aws_secret_access_key is the longer of the two keys so make sure you don't have them flipped.
