What helped me here was I wasn't following the AWS provided instructions exactly. I tried curl-ing the .zip file into a different directory and unzipping it from there. The .zip file needs to be in the root directory for proper installation. FWIW I was installing using a Dockerfile with an Ubuntu Jammy base image.

Fix to this issue would be to provide the right set of file permissions to aws-cli.

which aws            # Find the path of aws-cli, say /usr/local/aws-cli/

sudo chmod -R 755 /usr/local/aws-cli/
