Cloudformation“ AWS :: EC2 :: SecurityGroup”对象，原因“此用户无默认VPC”

Question

I am trying to create a stack in Cloudformation - I'm using the Windows Roles and Features sample template from here for this: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/sample-templates-applications-us-east-1.html

I've been testing cloudformation to see if it may be something I'd like to try. While launching the Stack, I keep running into an error when creating the "AWS::EC2::SecurityGroup" object with the Reason "No default VPC for this user"

I currently have 1 VPC with a bunch of different subnets. I've added a section in my JSON to specify the VPC and subnet but am still getting this error when I create the stack. Here is what I have added:

"VpcId" : { "Type" : "String", "Description" : "VpcId of your existing Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)" },

"Subnets" : {
  "Type" : "CommaDelimitedList",
  "Description" : "The list of SubnetIds, for at least two Availability Zones in the region in your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)"
},

Anyone know how to fix this? Or what I may be missing. Again as I said, I'm literally using the sample template. Thanks

You need to provide a VPC id:

• If you have an existing VPC then supply its VPC id, for example: "VpcId" : "vpc-12345678" .

• If you're creating the VPC in the same CloudFormation template then you'll need to reference it, for example "VpcId" : { "Ref" : "myvpc" } were myvpc is the resource name of the AWS::EC2::VPC resource you created in the template.
