I have setup a cloud first time using euca2ools1.3 and eucalyptus2.0 , all euca commands work fine even i have registered images and started running vms though they didn't run. but when my machine starts or i open another terminal, i run any euca-command and find this error:
Warning: failed to parse error message from AWS: :1:49: syntax error

Hello, first of all we have

Hello,

first of all we have released euca2ools 1.3.1 which fixed an issue with euca-register. We distribute python25 with CentOS, but you are using python 2.6: it's an untested configuration, so I'm not sure it works. You probably need to compile euca2ools (and dependencies) from source to be sure you install them in the right place for the version of python you are using.

Is there any particular reason why you are using 2.6?

cheers
