Hi,

Getting an error when trying to spawn a galaxy instance (Galaxy 20.09) via GVL:

Create appliance task failed: An error occurred (MalformedPolicyDocument) when calling the CreatePolicy operation: Syntax errors in policy.```

Any suggestions?

@timp0 Can you let us know which cloud you tried this on? I just tried on AWS and it launched ok.

@nuwang yeah, it was on AWS for me as well. At first I had some problems until I gave the IAM admin permissions (GetRole, SetRole), but this problem still persists. Wasn't clear how to get any further logs to share, please let me know what other details I can provide.

The docs are outdated on the required permissions (in (small) part what's holding the GVL in beta). This issue has the list of required permissions: #198 (comment)

@timp0 Also, what name did you give your deployment? It's possible that if the name is too long, it could result in some issues.

I tried several names, most recently "jhubmeclasstest" which is pretty short.

I tried adding the specific permissions, didn't seem to help. Here's a screenshot of the error. I'll note Galaxy 17 seems to start fine.

@timp0 Can you give it a go now?
