Unable to create application - no accounts listed in the dashed box next to the “Accounts” heading

Question

I am working on the Spinnaker Getting Started reference. Spinnaker now runs on an EC2 instance and is accessible via http: // localhost: 9000 .

When I try to create a new application, I understand that I expect my-aws-account and my-google-account . However, I do not see any parameters on this screen. Any idea on what could go wrong?

Answer 1

• Create an AWS User Account for Spinnaker
  • In the AWS Console, open AWS Identity and Access Management → Users → Create New Users.
  • Enter your username and click Create.
  • Create a passkey for the user.
  • Click "Download Credentials", you will need them later.
  • Click "Close."
• Apply permissions for new user
  • Click on the username you entered for a more detailed screen.
  • On the Summary page, click the Permissions tab.
  • Apply Managed Policy
    • Click "Attach Policy."
    • Check the box next to PowerUserAccess, then click "Attach Policy."
  • Create Inline Policy
    • Click the Inline Policies heading, then click the link to create an inline policy.
    • Click "Select for policy generator."
    • Select AWS Identity and Access Management from the AWS drop-down list.
    • Select PassRole for action.
    • Enter * (asterisk) in the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) field.
    • Click Add Expression, then Next Step.
    • Click Apply Policy.
• Add AWS Credentials for Spinnaker
  • Connect to an instance of Spinnaker (I assume you are using Linux)
  • Run the command: sudo mkdir /home/spinnaker/.aws
  • Run the command: sudo vim /home/spinnaker/.aws/credentials
  • Add the following lines to the file, then save and close:
    • Be sure to replace my-aws-account with your AWS my-aws-account name
    • Be sure to replace the key ID and access key values ​​with the credentials that you downloaded in step 1, part 4

  [my-aws-account] aws_access_key_id = AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE aws_secret_access_key = wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY 

4. Update default Spinnaker configuration files
   • Run the command: sudo vi /etc/default/spinnaker
   • Find the line SPINNAKER_AWS_ENABLED and change the value to true
   • Find the line SPINNAKER_AWS_DEFAULT_REGION and change the value to the area where the Spinnaker instance is running (for example, us-east-1 , without quotes)
   • Save and exit
5. Update the local Spinnaker configuration files (they override the YAML files that come with the Spinnaker installation)
   • Run the command: sudo vim /opt/spinnaker/config/spinnaker-local.yml
   • Find providers , then find aws under this
   • Under aws find enabled and change the value to true
   • At the bottom of aws find defaultRegion and change the value to the area where the Spinnaker instance is running (e.g. us-east-1 , without quotes)
   • Under primaryCredentials find name and change the value to my-aws-account
     • Be sure to replace my-aws-account with your AWS my-aws-account name
   • Save and exit
6. Restart spinnaker
   • Run the command: sudo /opt/spinnaker/scripts/reconfigure_spinnaker.sh
   • Run the command: sudo restart spinnaker
7. Reset the tunnel from your local machine to the Spinnaker instance
