KEYPAIR brickies e5:3d:58:88:e8:85:9e:aa:08:bf:19:cd:91:44:09:98

Ie, the key worked fine when uploaded with ec2-api-tools, but not with euca2ools.

looking at the attachments from the previous mail, its fairly clear that euca2ools is doing something bogus with PublicKeyMaterial as it is way too short.

i got the error. I sniffed the transfered traffic (to an non-cloud http server) and noticed that the transferred public_key_material is the base64 encoded _filename_ of the public key, not the base64 encoded _content_ of the file.

In the method "import_key_pair(self, key_name, public_key_material)" in the file /usr/share/pyshared/boto/ec2/connection.py the public_key_material is base64 encoded, i checked by printing the value of the variable.

I wrote a patch of /usr/share/pyshared/euca2ools/commands/euca/importkeypair.py and attached it. Works for me.

Too late, too late... :)

But my patch is derived from the runinstances.py file in the same folder, so maybe it's more unified.
