Re: [Virtuoso-users] Ec2 Extension issue.

[Hugh W. <hwi...@op...>]

Hi Cristain,

As detailed in the screen shot of the documentation it is the "AWS  
Access Key ID" and "AWS Secret Access key" that are required for  
authentication, must as with the Amazon S3 and ElasticFox plugins for  
FireFox, the Access Key ID of which must be 20 chars.

With the new AWS Management Console (https://console.aws.amazon.com/ 
ec2/home) this now allows for logins using the email address and  
password associated with your AWS account, but the EC2exts Ui does  
not and still requires the access key credentials as do the FF  
plugins.  You can obtain this information from the AWS Management  
console by, clicking on the "My Account" bread crumb link in the top  
right and clicking on the "Access Identifiers" link presented.

I shall add a note to the  documentation to make this clearer as it  
currently stands, and also enquire of development as to whether the  
EC2exts UI can be enhance to take the AWS login credentials as the  
AWS Management Console does in a future release, as they generally  
are far easier to remember ...

Best Regards
Hugh Williams
