When I run aws --version in a standard SLES 11.3 AWS build with a public IP, I get the following trace:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/usr/bin/aws”, line 23, in
sys.exit(main())
File “/usr/bin/aws”, line 19, in main
return awscli.clidriver.main()

driver = create\_clidriver()

module = **import** (path, fromlist=[module])
File “/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/awscli/handlers.py”, line 24, in
from awscli.customizations.ec2addcount import ec2\_add\_count

from botocore.parameters import StringParameter
ImportError: No module named parameters
The aws-cli package is installed but does not seem to be a part of any repositories. Is there an easy way to update the tools and/or get it working?

Hi
There is a separate amazon-ec2 subforum here;
[https://forums.suse.com/forumdisplay.php?94-Amazon-EC2](https://forums.suse.com/forumdisplay.php?94-Amazon-EC2)
You might get more specific help there, I do note they have a github
site and instructions on how to update in the readme;
