A couple things you can try:

On your local computer check ~/.aws/config and make sure you have the correct credentials set up. Your credentials should look like this:

  [profile my-profile-name]
  aws_access_key_id = AKBCDEFG1234567890
  aws_secret_access_key = abce123456ghijklmnop
  region = us-east-1

Run the init command with the -i flag to make sure you enter the interactive mode, and pass the profile name:

  eb init -i --profile=my-profile-name
