Help! Transfer data between EC2 and S3

Post by blzopensees » Thu Dec 22, 2016 12:11 am

I am trying to transfer earthquake records from S3 to EC2. I tryed to use Starcluster to start the instances with IAM role with reference to the following page:
http://star.mit.edu/cluster/mlarchives/2314.html
However, when I tried to copy the file 'main.tcl' from my bucket 'wodecunchutong' to directory 'root' on the instances, an error occurred as follows:

C:\Users\asus>starcluster put mycluster s3://wodecunchutong/main.tcl /root
StarCluster - (http://star.mit.edu/cluster) (v. 0.95.6)
Software Tools for Academics and Researchers (STAR)
Please submit bug reports to starcluster@mit.edu

!!! ERROR - Local file or directory does not exist:
!!! ERROR - s3://wodecunchutong/main.tcl

I also tried to use AWS CLI with reference to the following page:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1591 ... nd-aws-ec2
, but still failed:

C:\Users\asus>aws s3 cp s3://wodecunchutong/main.tcl /root --recursive
C:\Users\asus>starcluster sshmaster mycluster
StarCluster - (http://star.mit.edu/cluster) (v. 0.95.6)

eval $(resize)
root@master:~# eval $(resize)
7[r[999;999H[6n
resize: Time out occurred
root@master:~# ls /root
ls /root

That is to say, nothing was copied to the /root directory on the EC2 instance.

Can anyone tell me how to copy files from EC2 to S3 bucket? I am new to Amazon EC2 and S3.Please give me some advice.
Thanks!

it obviosly does not like the directory: s3://wodecunchutong/main.tcl

you could try just cd'ing into the directory and then issing the command:
starcluster put mycluster main.tcl /root
