Region error when launching EMR cluster

I'm following this tutorial https://aws.amazon.com/articles/4926593393724923

to create and launch a simple spark cluster, Im interested in using spark streaming and kinesis so i created a role with the following policy

{ "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Action": "cloudwatch:", "Effect": "Allow", "Resource": "" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": "kinesis:", "Resource": "" },
{ "Effect": "Allow", "Action": "sns:", "Resource": "" }, { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": "s3:", "Resource": "" } ] }

And i get this error when running the --create command from the cli

ruby elastic-mapreduce --create --alive --name "Spark- Kinesis" --bootstrap-action s3://elasticmapreduce/samples/spark/0.8.1/install-s park-shark.sh --bootstrap-name "Spark/Shark" --instance-type m1.xlarge --instan ce-count 3 --jobflow-role spark Error: Credential should be scoped to a valid region, not 'us-west-2'. emr-cli/aws/core/client.rb:368:in return_or_raise' emr-cli/aws/core/client.rb:469:inclient_request' (eval):3:in get_instance_profile' emr-cli/iam_client_wrapper.rb:69:ininstance_profile_exists?'

The region for my key-pair is us-west-2, so im not sure whats going wrong.

Try this in us-east-1. If it works, it means you are using the AWS client which still has the problem where they used the target region for IAM as well. IAM only supports requests scoped to us-east-1.

I believe there was a fix to this problem: https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-ruby/issues/508
