Alternative for decryption of Administrator password for EC2 Windows Server instance

0

I have the .pem file with the RSA key but after launching the instance, when I click "Get password" It gets stuck in the following message.

Password is not available. Please wait at least 4 minutes after launching an instance before trying to retrieve the auto-generated password.

Is there an alternative for retrieving the password?

Thank you in advance.

So you've waited a while and the instance is definitely healthy, and you still get that message? Have you tried using another connection method, e.g. Session Manager (cmd line), EC2 Instance Connect (SSH) or Systems Manager Fleet Manager (RDP)?

  • Hello, Yes the instance is healthy and the message never updates, i am trying to connect via RDP, I have not tried other methods, yet curiously this happens to any new instance I create, even if I make a new key pair.

Does the principal you're using to access the console have ec2:GetPasswordData permission? Is EC2Config enabled on the instance? See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/WindowsGuide/common-messages.html#password-not-ready for more info.
