I am trying to finish up the specialization here, but it seems we could not create any AWS resources. I have submitted the Combined Data Engineering Lab Issue Report. I noticed this happened on my Practice Lab where the AWS console link is missing, and then the same thing happened when I start to do the Capstone project.
I checked the credentials, yes, they are missing just as below
aws_access_key_id =
aws_secret_access_key =
aws_session_token =
In the terminal, when we try to set up the environment,
source scripts/setup.sh
An error occurred (InvalidClientTokenId) when calling the DescribeDBInstances operation: The security token included in the request is invalid.
…. DescribeSubnets operation:
…. ListBuckets operation: The authorization header is malformed; a non-empty Access Key (AKID) must be provided in the credential.
…. DescribeClusters operation: The security token included in the request is invalid.
…. GetCallerIdentity operation: The security token included in the request is invalid.
Setup completed successfully. All environment variables and Terraform backend configurations have been set.
I ran the vocapi logger and submitted via the form
Here is partial text
Unsuccessful vocapi call to start lab
Error: Course expired
Initial Lab state:
Final Lab state after loop:
AWS Console URL extracted:
AWS credentials file created at /home/coder/.aws/credentials
AWS config file created at /home/coder/.aws/config
It seems like it’s a re-occuring issue for all Data Engineering specialization participations, I have seen a lot of replies and post implying the same thing on AWS missing URL / missing resources.
I am facing the same issue, and it’s very frustrating. The entire course was good and smooth, but when it’s time to finish the course by using all the skills we’ve learned and earn the certificate, this problem is making it very difficult for learners to complete the course within the subscription plan deadline.
