Although the error message you are receiving gives you no clue whatsoever, I 
suspect that the problem is that bot is not able to find your AWS credentials.  
I believe the latest version of the code in the RC1 release gives you a better 
error message.

I see. 

I am manipulating multiple AWS accounts with one backend daemon, which calls 
boto API. So Is there a way to get RegionInfo object without AWS credentials?

You can just create a RegionInfo object manually, like this:

>>> from boto.ec2.regioninfo import RegionInfo
>>> r = RegionInfo(name='us-east-1', endpoint='ec2.amazon.com')
>>> conn = r.connect()

I'm going to close this.  Re-open if you think further action is required.
