Research direction

Start with the linked prerequisites page and compare its Cloud9 clone path with configureCloud9.sh. Verify that the documented repository and folder names match the script's expectations, then confirm the setup commands work from a fresh Cloud9 environment.

Description

I followed instructions on: https://async-messaging.workshop.aws/prerequisites/prerequisites-2/prerequisites-2.html

I tried to run:

cd ~/environment/wild-rydes-async-messaging/code/lab-0
chmod +x configureCloud9.sh
./configureCloud9.sh

however I ran into 2 issues:

  1. the folder did not exist
  2. after sorting that out, the folder name was incorrect

the fix:
Inside Cloud9's terminal, manually run git clone https://github.com/aws-samples/asynchronous-messaging-workshop
then, cd into that directory (instead of wild-rydes-async-messaging per the instructions on the page)
then, proceed with the chmod and running of configureCloud9.sh (some lines in the script depend on the old name)

so, then, rename the folder back from asynchronous-messaging-workshop to wild-rydes-async-messaging
