Amazon Certificate Manager provides a LimitExceededException

Question

I have a new AWS account with no certificates associated with it.

Here's what it looks like when I try to request a certificate for a domain through Amazon Certificate Manager:

Trying a command aws acm request-certificatefrom the command line gives me:

An error occurred (LimitExceededException) when calling the 
RequestCertificate operation: Cannot request more certificates in this account. 
Contact Customer Service for details

The documentation indicates limitations, but I do not have certificates, so I should not have exceeded it.

Any ideas what could be the problem?

Answer 1

This was resolved by AWS, not sure what the actual issue was.

"aws acm list-certificate", - , . :

hannah@Hannah-PC:~$ aws acm list-certificates

    "CertificateSummaryList": []

hannah@Hannah-PC:~$ grep region .aws/config 
region = ap-southeast-2

, - east-1:

hannah@Hannah-PC:~$ aws acm list-certificates --region=us-east-1
