If you created a new key pair you will need to use
ssh-add <key>.pem
Verify that it's in ssh-agent
ssh-add - l

I create a new key pair and...
I specify that the key is not already in AWS, on the other hand it is well created but I can not save it locally

./autovpn -G -r us-west-2
Generating new keypair for us-west-2.

Try to delete it and recreate It looks like some weird ascii encoding error.

. /autovpn -D -r us-east-2 - k us-east-2_vpnkey
Then
. /autovpn -G -r us-east-2

hum, it's the same thing.

I will look at the code

[duquerroy]

when i do in command line
python ./scripts/keygen.py "us-west-2_vpnkey" "us-west-2" "."

it's works...

sounds like its unable to write to the directory. what is the output of "pwd"?

[duquerroy]

$ pwd
/home/zil/Téléchargements/autovpn

But it's good, I managed to make it work with

python ./scripts/keygen.py "us-west-2_vpnkey" "us-west-2" "."

Thanks !
