Retry the initial ssh to an ec2 instance #398

Closed pcn closed 9 years ago

pcn commented 9 years ago

This is because we're still running into the same issue as described at https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant-aws/issues/74#issuecomment-54758045, more than 2 years after it was intially described.

I'm not familiar enough with ruby to know how to discover/narrow down the class of the exception - it doesn't appear to be part of the stack trace - so I'm rescuing very broadly, and retrying. Since there's a retry limit, in the case where ssh is really unreachable this should still terminate.

So far instead of seeing as much as a 50% (false) failure rate, I haven't seen any failures with this patch.
