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.

```export const vpc = aws.ec2.getVpc({ default: true }```
Should return something

I ended up explicitly creating a VPC and subnets.
