I successfully installed aws using pip install awscli --upgrade --user
. However, when I'm trying to aws configure
or aws --version
, I'm getting following error

In order to install aws cli on rhel 8 follow these steps install python3-pip pip3 install awscli --upgrade --user confirm it by this aws --version if you want to check out docs on installation.
For general use, the aws configure command is the fastest way to set up your AWS CLI installation. When you type this command, the AWS CLI prompts you for four pieces of information (access key, secret access key, AWS Region, and output format).
The CLI configuration file – This is another file that is updated when you run the command aws configure. The file is located at ~/.aws/config on Linux, macOS, or Unix, or at C:\Users\USERNAME\.aws\config on Windows.
You need six version > 1.8.0. Show activity on this post. Show activity on this post. Show activity on this post. I had to update Python On FreeBSD I ran. pkg update pkg upgrade Then I was able to run AWS aws --version Show activity on this post. I had to remove the anaconda bin from my $PATH in my .bashrc.
The aws
package in PyPI is not AWS's official CLI client but rather an older unmaintained library that used to interface with AWS and is now broken. AWS's official CLI client is awscli
. Therefore if you pip install aws
instead of pip install awscli
you will run into the issue above.
The solution is to first run pip uninstall aws
then run pip install awscli
.
Error with import if fabric submodules. Commented from fabric import .. statements and added import fabric. Not sure, if this is originally an issue but, resolved my problem. Please refer my comment on my question.
