Installing AWS CLI v2 on Raspberry Pi 4B with Raspbian OS
Is it possible to install AWS CLI v2 on a Raspberry Pi 4B? I am on Raspbian OS.
I tried going through the steps here and here, but was unable to install AWS CLI v2 on a Raspberry Pi:
curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-aarch64.zip" -o "awscliv2.zip"
unzip awscliv2.zip
sudo ./aws/install
Error message as follows:
./aws/install: 78: ./aws/install: /home/pi/aws/dist/aws: Exec format error
Found preexisting AWS CLI installation: /usr/local/aws-cli/v2/current. Please rerun install script with --update flag.
I finally succeeded with the first option in the instructions here (via git clone https://github.com/aws/aws-cli.git) and installing the dependencies (CMake and Rust), but when I run aws --version I get the following error:
ImportError: cannot import name 'register_dynamodb_paginator_fix' from 'awscli.customizations.dynamodb' (/home/pi/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/awscli/customizations/dynamodb/__init__.py)

Hello,
It looks like you have multiple versions of the AWS CLI installed per your original error message. I recommend uninstalling the older version located in /usr/local/aws-cli/v2/current.
I followed the instructions you gave and was able to install the AWS CLI on a Raspberry Pi 4B with no error messages. Logs below for reference. This was a brand new install of Raspbian OS.
curl -O 'https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-aarch64.zip' unzip awscli-exe-linux-aarch64.zip
root@kube-worker1:/home/pi# sudo ./aws/install You can now run: /usr/local/bin/aws --version root@kube-worker1:/home/pi# /usr/local/bin/aws --version aws-cli/2.7.22 Python/3.9.11 Linux/5.10.63-v8+ exe/aarch64.debian.11 prompt/off

At the install step, I get an "Exec format error":
@Nathanial that's odd considering an
Exec format errormeans the operating system is not compatible. Are you running on 32bit RaspbianOS or 64bit? This AWS CLI package is only compatible with the 64bit OS. Can you check your OS version usinguname -a?Okay, got it. I realize I am on a 32-bit Raspbian OS, and perhaps I should switch to a 64-bit OS:
