Create a new lightsail instance from manual snapshot simply does nothing

Please i heaven't receive any reply and the problem is blocking for me, is there another way to get support or another way to go round the problem? thank you

Sorry to hear that.

.

Here is a work around. Use AWS CloudShell via the Lightsail console to create the new instance via a command instead. Please refer this doc .

The command you would run is (please replace the values with your desired names and plan size) :

.

aws lightsail create-instances-from-snapshot --region eu-central-1 --instance-snapshot-name <replace_with_snapshot_name> --instance-names <replace_with_instance_name> --bundle-id <replace_with_plan_size_like medium_3_0 for $24 one> --availability-zone eu-central-1a

I'm so sorry but it does not work, i'm worried about it. The cloud share can't create an environment , this is the error, i can not access thru the cli, i'm desperate, any other suggestion?

What error is CloudShell throwing? If it is missing permissions and you are using an IAM user/role to access the Lightsail console, please add the arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/AWSCloudShellFullAccess policy to the IAM role/user that you’re using. . When you say couldn't access through CLI do you mean above CloudShell only or did you also try CLI via your terminal? Also please note, if using CLI on Lightsail instance, you will need to setup AWS credentials and cannot use the default instance profile.

I see you have contacted AWS Support via a case and are being helped there. You should now be unblocked from this issue. Thanks for reporting it.
