I’m trying to follow the EKS tutorial https://www.pulumi.com/docs/guides/crosswalk/aws/eks/ and running into this error right out of they gate when I try to provision the cluster. Isn’t it supposed to install into the default VPC? What am I missing?

yes it should, do you have a default VPC in the region you're installing it? some accounts delete it

Yes, I have a default VPC in the region. It does have the old style shorter VPC ID if that makes a difference.

does it have subnets in it? this is where we detect the VPC. https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi-eks/blob/c0d357bdf3f283006f8b0a6cd4bc2f1c09df34c0/nodejs/eks/cluster.ts#L399-L404

export const vpc = aws.ec2.getVpc({ default: true }

Should return something

I ended up explicitly creating a VPC and subnets.
