AppScale on Amazon EC2: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_all_instances'

[Aidan Lane]

Hi,

I'm following the guide at https://github.com/AppScale/appscale/wiki/AppScale-on-Amazon-EC2

All goes well up until 'appscale up'

I get this:

'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_all_instances'

A log with more information is available at

Log file:

  File "/usr/local/appscale-tools/bin/appscale", line 61, in <module>

    appscale.up()

  File "/usr/local/appscale-tools/bin/../lib/appscale.py", line 251, in up

    options = ParseArgs(command, "appscale-run-instances").args

  File "/usr/local/appscale-tools/bin/../lib/parse_args.py", line 139, in __init__

    self.validate_allowed_flags(function)

  File "/usr/local/appscale-tools/bin/../lib/parse_args.py", line 392, in validate_allowed_flags

    self.validate_credentials()

  File "/usr/local/appscale-tools/bin/../lib/parse_args.py", line 611, in validate_credentials

    params = cloud_agent.get_params_from_args(self.args)

  File "/usr/local/appscale-tools/bin/../lib/agents/ec2_agent.py", line 281, in get_params_from_args

    self.assert_credentials_are_valid(params)

  File "/usr/local/appscale-tools/bin/../lib/agents/ec2_agent.py", line 116, in assert_credentials_are_valid

    conn.get_all_instances()

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_all_instances'

exception : AttributeError

locale : en_AU

tools_version : 2.2.0

platform : Darwin-14.1.0-x86_64-i386-64bit

message : 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_all_instances'

runtime : CPython

This occurs with tools 2.0.0 and 2.2.0.

Btw, brew still installs version 2.0.0, not even 2.1.0- any ideas why?

Please help!

Best, A

Btw, ec2-version is 

1.7.3.0 2014-10-01

Hi,

We're currently in the process of releasing AppScale and AppScale Tools 2.2 and since the 2.2 AMI is not out yet the tools fail to start the 2.1 AMI.

We can have a public AMI with the latest and greatest by tomorrow.

Until then you can download AppScale Tools 2.1 from here, build them as per the README instructions and use the AMI from the instructions to start AppScale 2.1 over EC2.

If you need further instructions please let us know.

Hi Meni

I am attempting to create an AppScale instance with a static ip in the ap-southeast-2 region and am having the same issue using the public images.

Are you aware of this problem?

Cheers Joy

[Meni Vaitsi]

Hi Joy,

We are currently offering public AppScale images on us-east-1. That's why the default region in the AppScalefile is set to us-east-1b. If you don't have any strong preference for ap-southeast-2, you can change that region and you should be good to go.

I'll make sure we change that error message into something more meaningful in the meantime.

Let me know if that helps.

Hi Meni

Thanks for responding so quickly. I changed the region. I only wanted southeast because that is where our database is.

Cheers

Hi Joy,

If you see any particular performance issues or it doesn't work for you, let us know and we will figure something else out.

Best
