[StarCluster] InvalidBlockDeviceMapping error

[MacMullan, Hugh]

Hi Jian:

There's a problem with 0.95.5 with the latest version of boto package (https://github.com/jtriley/StarCluster/issues/455). Justin's working on an update, but in the meantime you can do:

pip uninstall boto
pip install boto==2.32.0

That should work!

Let us know your results.

Hi, just started trying starcluster. I was running the most simple 'mycluster' example, but got an error. Could you help? Thanks!

$ starcluster start mycluster
