So the problem is with the execution of eksctl create cluster --full-ecr-access --region us-west-2 --aws-api-timeout command. It looks like it is a problem with eksctl which for some reasons cannot upload your public SSH key.

For your information - jx EKS support works on my Fedora 28.

Are you sure your public SSH key is OK? Maybe you could generate new key for a test and verify if eksctl still generates the same error?

[Gogs008]

@hekonsek, thanks for your help! My SSH key is OK. I tried using a new one, and still encounter this error when I run jx create cluster eks:

Anyone have any ideas?

[Gogs008]

@hekonsek, To give you further background, I have set up JenkinsX on an Ubuntu EC2 instance.
1) I created a Key Pair named "foo" in the EC2 dashboard
2) I then saved and renamed the foo.pem file as id_rsa.pem in the ~/.ssh directory of the Ubuntu instance.
3) I run openssl rsa -check -in id_rsa.pem -noout to check that the RSA key has not been corrupted in anyway and is working fine. It returns RSA key ok.
4) I then run openssl rsa -in id_rsa.pem -pubout > id_rsa.pub to get create the public key from the pem file and save it also in the ~/.ssh directory

Anyone see anything that I have mentioned, that I am doing wrong? Thanks!

[hekonsek]

Can you try to generate key pair using the following command - ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "[email protected]"? And then run eksctl again? If that works successfully then we know that the issue is one of these two:

• way you generate your key from PEM file
• eksctl which cannot read your key

I bet it is the latter. :)

[Gogs008]

@hekonsek I followed your instructions and this is my output:

[hekonsek]

Can you send me output of which eksctl command?

[Gogs008]

From the home directory, which eksctl returns nothing.

[hekonsek]

Can you remove ~/.jx directory and try again?

[Gogs008]

After removing the ~/.jx directory, and trying again, which eksctl still returns nothing.

[vishalraina]

I got the same error I was able to resolve it by adding
export PATH=$PATH:~/.jx/bin/

[Gogs008]

@vishalraina Thanks! That resolved my issue!
