I am currently attempting to use the packer google compute builder to create images for my company. Currently, whenever I run the build I get the message: googlecompute: error creating the instance: googleapi: error 403: required 'compute.zones.get' permission for 'projects/oceanic-muse-200813/zones/us-east4-a', forbidden. I have messed around with the I am settings and thought I might have fixed it but apparently not. The following is my json file: {

"builders": [{

"type": "googlecompute",

"account_file": "C:/Users/Morgan Davis/google-account.json",

"project_id": "oceanic-muse-200813",

"source_image": "centos-7-v20190326",

"zone": "us-east4-a",

"image_name": "asl-hub-{{timestamp}}",

"ssh_username": "<temp>"

}]

}

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Morgan Davis

So the user in the account file don't have the mentioned permission. Check which role it has and then what permissions it has.

Alright. I made a new service account and got its account file instead. I now get a different error concerning the ssh handshake. It says something to the effect of: handshake failed unable to authenticate attempted methods [public key none] no supported methods remain. Any thoughts? Thank you for the advice earlier as well.

Nevermind, I got past that error. Forgot I had to specify a ssh username other than root.
