I was getting error “You must specify a region” when running any aws CLI command. The fix: Using the aws command:
aws configure set region us - east - 1 -- profile demo
which will automatically add the following to the file ~/.aws/config:
[ profile demo ]
region = us - east - 1
You many simply edit the ~/.aws/config file yourself and append the same thing:
vi ~ / . aws / config
[ profile demo ]
region = us - east - 1
