Hi Alex,
Replacing availability zone in ec2.ini also gave me the same error:
ERROR! The file inventory/ec2.py is marked as executable, but failed to
execute correctly. If this is not supposed to be an executable script,
correct this with `chmod -x inventory/ec2.py`.
Inventory script (inventory/ec2.py) had an execution error: region name:
us-west-2a likely not supported, or AWS is down. connection to region
failed.
inventory/ec2.py:3: Error parsing host definition ''''': No closing
quotation
Unsetting the environment variable and setting region in ec2.ini does not
help and gives the same Unreachable error. :(
Thanks,
Nirav
