title: Can't add image to AWS Autoscale launch config
body: <p>I'm using the following command to set up the AWS launch config:</p>
  
  <pre><code>as-create-launch-config test1autoscale --image-id ami-xxxx --instance-type m1.small
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>where ami-xxxx is the image id that I got from my instance via the web console. I get the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Malformed input-AMI ami-xxxx is invalid: The AMI ID 'ami-xxxx' does not exist
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have triple checked that the image id matches the instance image id. My availability zone is ap-southeast-1a. I am not clear on what image is being asked for if it will not accept the image of the instance I wish to add to the autoscale group</p>
