[Bug]: Cloud9 eks workshop setup failure

[cskalyan]

Installation method

Own AWS account

What happened?

I am unable to setup Cloud9 Environment in my AWS Account and I keep getting this error
Failed to create/update the stack. Run the following command
to fetch the list of events leading up to the failure
aws cloudformation describe-stack-events --stack-name eks-workshop-ide

What did you expect to happen?

Successful stack creation.

How can we reproduce it?

Run below in US-EAST-1

wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aws-samples/eks-workshop-v2/stable/lab/cfn/eks-workshop-ide-cfn.yaml -O eks-workshop-ide-cfn.yaml
aws cloudformation deploy --stack-name eks-workshop-ide
--template-file ./eks-workshop-ide-cfn.yaml
--parameter-overrides RepositoryRef=stable
--capabilities CAPABILITY_NAMED_IAM

Anything else we need to know?

No response

EKS version

1.29

Have you check if you have a default VPC in us-east-1?

[princeanire]

It seems that the Cloud9 IDE is deployed in the default VPC

Have you check if you have a default VPC in us-east-1?

I do have default VPC in US-EAST-1 and it has 6 subnets.

[princeanire]

have you tried checking the root cuase via aws cloudformation template?

I think there would an error that will be displayed on the consoke,
that might help troubleshooting the setup failure

I did check on AWS Console and all I see is EksWorkshopC9Instance create failed. When I monitor in detail, I see that it is saying connecting but connecting to EC2 is failing.

Hi folks,

Currently the CloudFormation template assumes either:

1. You deploy to the default VPC (default behavior)
2. You use the CloudSubnet parameter to specify an alternative VPC

I think something we might want to do in the future is always create a dedicated VPC but we don't do that at the moment.

It did not help. I tried defining VPC-ID and also Subnet id. Looks like SSH connection to the instance is failing. All I see is connecting status and nothing happens.

Does your default VPC have Internet access?
