Error: localstack dynamodb not working
Answered by Rafal Wilinski
What's Causing This Error
This error message indicates an issue with using LocalStack, a library that allows you to run local versions of AWS services in your tests or development environment. This can happen if LocalStack is not installed correctly, if the version of LocalStack is not compatible with the version of the boto3 library, or if there is an issue with the code that is using LocalStack.
Solution: Here's How To Resolve It
To solve this error, check that LocalStack is correctly installed by running the command pip show localstack and ensure that the version of LocalStack is compatible with the boto3 you are using.
It is also important to check that the provided access key and secret key are valid and have the necessary permissions to access the DynamoDB service.
