Issue in creating workspace - Custom AWS Configuration

Anonymous — Thu, 10 Feb 2022 12:10:04 GMT

We have tried to create new workspace using "Custom AWS Configuration" and we have given our own VPC (Customer managed VPC) and tried but workspace failed to launch. We are getting below error which couldn't understand where the issue is in.

Workspace failed to launch.

Error: caught failure in cleanup chain: MALFORMED_REQUEST: Failed network validation checks; get network a32efc55-dfbf-4df9-a251-164e56636325 for more detailed error messages..

Appreciate a support on this issue.

1) what is failed network validation checks ? this seems to be very highlevel.

2) what is "get network a32efc55-dfbf-4df9-a251-164e56636325 for more detailed error messages" . where can we find more details.

Experiencing workspace launch failures with custom AWS configuration is frustrating. The "MALFORMED_REQUEST" error and failed network validation checks suggest a VPC configuration issue. It feels like playing Infinite Craft, endlessly combining elements hoping for the right outcome. Have you checked your VPC's security groups and route tables? The error references network a32efc55, look in your AWS console for detailed logs related to that specific network ID, it might unveil the problem.
