Missing credentials in config, if using aws_config_file, set aws_sdk_load_config=1

The error message “missing credentials in config” suggests that there is an issue with the AWS credentials configuration. This error commonly occurs when the AWS SDK cannot find the necessary credentials to authenticate with AWS services.

To resolve this issue, you can try setting the environment variable “aws_sdk_load_config” to “1” if you are using an AWS config file. This will enable the AWS SDK to load the configuration from the specified file.

Here’s an example of how you can set the environment variable:

    
      export aws_sdk_load_config=1
    
  

By setting “aws_sdk_load_config” to “1”, the AWS SDK will search for the default AWS config file (typically located at “~/.aws/config”) and automatically load the credentials from it.

It’s important to ensure that the AWS config file contains the necessary credentials section. Here’s an example of how the AWS config file could be structured:

    
      [default]
      aws_access_key_id = YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID
      aws_secret_access_key = YOUR_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
    
  

Replace “YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID” with your actual AWS access key ID and “YOUR_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY” with your secret access key obtained from the AWS console.
