# AWS EC2 API create-fpga-image error codes An AFI is created using an AWS API called `aws ec2 create-fpga-image`. When calling the API, the developer passes a pointer to an S3 bucket which contains a tar file. The tar file includes the encrypted and compiled fpga image(a.k.a. Design Checkpoint or DCP) and a mandatory `manifest.txt` file. Example API Usage: ``` $ aws ec2 create-fpga-image \ --name \ --description \ --input-storage-location Bucket=,Key= \ --logs-storage-location Bucket=,Key= \ [ --client-token ] \ [ --dry-run | --no-dry-run ] ``` Errors can occurs when calling this API and this document provides the specification for the error codes. ## Error Codes * `INACCESSIBLE_INPUT` *Error accessing resource in S3. Check permissions, naming, and ensure the bucket is within the same region as the API endpoint.* * `INPUT_SIZE_ILLEGAL` *Input file size is not valid* * `DCP_INTEGRITY_UNVERIFIED` *The DCP integrity SHA-256 hash does not match the provided DCP* * `MANIFEST_NOT_FOUND` *No manifest file was found. See AWS FPGA HDK documentation for valid input format. We recommend using the scripts provided with AWS FPGA HDK* * `MANIFEST_PARSE_FAILED` *Parsing the manifest file failed. We recommend using the scripts provided with AWS FPGA HDK* * `SHELL_VERSION_INVALID` *The Shell Version provided is invalid* * `SHELL_VERSION_DEPRECATED` *The Shell Version provided is deprecated* * `PCIID_SYNTAX_INVALID` *PCI ID is not provided, wrongly formatted, or value is out of range valid range 1-65535 or 0x0001-0xFFFF* * `PCIID_FORBIDDEN` *PCI ID value used is reserved. See AWS FPGA HDK documentation for reserved PCI* * `CLK_ILLEGAL` *Provided clocks configuration is illegal. See AWS FPGA HDK documentation for supported clocks configuration* * `CORRUPT_ARCHIVE` *Failed to parse the input tarball archive* * `DCP_NOT_FOUND` *No DCP file was found with the supplied filename. See AWS FPGA HDK documentation for valid input format. We recommend using the scripts provided with AWS FPGA HDK* * `DCP_CORRUPT` *Could not parse the input DCP. The DCP files seems to be corrupt* * `DCP_NOT_ENCRYPTED` *The DCP was not encrypted* * `UNKNOWN_BITSTREAM_GENERATE_ERROR` *An error occurred generating the FPGA image bitstream. If an S3 LogsStorageLocation was provided in the CreateFpgaImage request, review the captured bitstream generation logs saved to S3 under the FpgaImageId for this AFI.* * **Note:** This is a catch-all error and could be caused due to a variety of issues, for eg: * We found a combinatorial loop in the CL design. Bitstream generation logs might show errors like `ERROR: [DRC LUTLP-1] Combinatorial Loop Alert: 2 LUT cells form a combinatorial loop. Combinatorial loops are not allowed in CL designs and AFI's are not generated in such a case.
