C4W4 Capstone Project 2: Empty aws url

Hello,
I’ve been trying to get the aws link in order to complete the lab for the last 2 weeks. and still i get it empty. i filled the restart form, got a response that says it’s fixed but still the aws link is empty.

can anyone help solve this problem please.

Thanks,

Hello @abedelb
Sorry for the inconvenience. Can you please provide a screenshot of the error you get? Do you mean the link to VSCode is empty?

Hello @Amir_Zare thank you for your response

when i do cat /home/coder/.aws/aws_console_url i have empty result

and when i cat the vocapi_logger i get those logs

So i guess it it related to the aws account creation :frowning:

Thank you for help

@abedelb the problem is with the total spend exceeding the lab budget. This issue is resolved by requesting a lab refresh. Can you please tell us when was your lab refreshed? And have you had any progress in any session after the refresh?

@Amir_Zare , i have not had any progress for the last 2 weeks. I filled the form for lab refresh and received an email that says it has been resolved but still don’t have any aws access

Hello @hawraa.salami
Looks like @abedelb here has requested a lab refresh a while ago. However, even after lab refresh they are getting the lab spend exceeded budget error.
Thank you in advance for your help.
