Cloudformation template gives " Non-Windows instances with a virtualization type of 'hvm' are currently not supported for this instance type

问题

I wrote a simple cloudformation template that should create an EC2 isntance on AWS.

Cloudformation template gives " Non-Windows instances with a virtualization type of 'hvm' are currently not supported for this instance type." I looked up on this forum and they said "InstanceType" is missing. I am brand new to Cloud formation . Where should I put "InstanceTyp"? thanks much { "AWSTemplateFormatVersion" : "2010-09-09",

I see you are not specifying the instance type in CF. The default type is m3.medium. Looks like in the region you are using m3.medium is not supported for hvm type AMI.

One way to specify the instance type: EC2 Instance Type Parameter
