Public bug reported: Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Release: 10.04
python-vm-builder-ec2: Installed: 0.12.3-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 0.12.3-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 0.12.3-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/universe Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Hi, I can't generate EC2 images with vmbuilder. I'm using a command like this: sudo vmbuilder xen ubuntu --suite=lucid --ec2 \ --ec2-cert=.ec2/cert-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.pem \ --ec2-key=.ec2/pk-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.pem \ --ec2-access-key=WHATEVER \ --ec2-secret-key=WHATEVER \ --ec2-user=424242424242 --ec2-bucket=anyrandombucket --ec2-prefix=test \ --ec2-version='first' \ --firstboot=/usr/share/doc/python-vm-builder-ec2/examples/ec2-firstboot.sh \ --part=/usr/share/doc/python-vm-builder-ec2/examples/ec2-i386-part-file.txt \ --debug Actually, I was following this howto: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EC2Vmbuilder When I run vmbuilder with those flags, I just get this message: Usage: vmbuilder hypervisor distro [options] vmbuilder: error: no such option: --ec2 So, I can not build images for Amazon EC2. I inspected /usr/share/pyshared/VMBuilder/plugins/ec2/__init__.py and I found at the last line of that file this: #register_plugin(EC2) I uncommented that line and it didn't work. Also I tried using register_hypervisor_plugin(EC2), but it didn't work. If I'm missing something obvious here, just let me know. In fact, what I'm trying to do is just build an EC2 image like the ones described in http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/lucid/release/ It would be nice to know how were generated the Ubuntu official images available in Amazon EC2.
