vagrant up provider=aws produces an error

this is my vagrantfile 

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.box = "dummy"

  config.vm.provider :aws do |aws, override|
    aws.access_key_id = "Asome codeQ"
    aws.secret_access_key = "woEbLL some code 3TRYD3wW"
    aws.keypair_name = "moshe"

    aws.ami = "ami-7747d01e"
    aws.region = "ap-northeast-1"
    #aws.security_groups = ['test']
    aws.instance_type = "t1.micro"
    override.ssh.username = "ubuntu"
    override.ssh.private_key_path = "moshe.pem"
  end
end

then I get an error which i dont know what to do with 

Error occurred: Unable to verify certificate, please set `Excon.defaults[:ssl_ca_path] = path_to_certs`, `ENV['SSL_CERT_DIR'] = path_to_certs`, `Excon.defaults[:ssl_ca_file] = path_to_file`, `ENV['SSL_CERT_FILE'] = path_to_file` or `Excon.defaults[:ssl_verify_peer] = false` (less secure)

any ideas how to get this box running on aws

Put these three lines at the top of Vagrantfile to work around the issue.

require 'rubygems'
require 'excon'
Excon.defaults[:ssl_verify_peer] = false

I found the answer at https://github.com/excon/excon/issues/13. You have to add:

require 'rubygems'
require 'excon'

to your /.chef/knife.rb

then disable SSL verification by adding:

Excon.defaults[:ssl_verify_peer] = false

You should also be able to specify the cert directory using:

Excon.defaults[:ssl_ca_path] = "path/to/certs"

but I was not able to get that to work.
