[BUG] 2.5.1 nvflare dashboard --cloud aws fails

[dirkpetersen]

I tried 5-6 configurations but it never runs, I see it is trying to use an old 20.04 AMI, would recommend (24.04, e.g. ami-04dd23e62ed049936)

dp@grammy:~/temp$ nvflare dashboard --cloud aws Dashboard launch script for cloud is written at /home/dp/temp/aws_start_dsb.sh. Now running it.

@dirkpetersen , we found the original AMI is Ubuntu 20.04 and its Python version (3.8) is too old for nvflare 2.5.1. We switch the AMI to ami-04c7330a29e61bbca and the dashboard launch process finished without problem. The dashboard can be viewed at the AWS. We will update the script template.
