I have been trying to implement a cron job on my EB worker.
My EB CLI on a deploy says "ERROR: Update environment operation is complete, but with errors."
My yaml seems to parse just fine and in my EB events list I see the line "Successfully loaded 1 scheduled tasks from cron.yaml."
version: 1 cron: - name: "cron" url: "/cron" schedule: "* * * * *"
I look in the eb-activity.log and there is this issue:
Activity execution failed, because: User: arn:aws:sts::550612933446:assumed-role/WorkerTierRole_KK/i-5fe79aa0 is not authorized to perform: dynamodb:UpdateItem on resource: arn:aws:dynamodb:us-east-1:550612933446:table/awseb-e-jcrjmidtsu-stack-AWSEBWorkerCronLeaderRegistry-1GVA6A4AV0YDW - (Aws::DynamoDB::Errors::AccessDeniedException) (ElasticBeanstalk::ExternalInvocationError) caused by: User: arn:aws:sts::550612933446:assumed-role/WorkerTierRole_KK/i-5fe79aa0 is not authorized to perform: dynamodb:UpdateItem on resource: arn:aws:dynamodb:us-east-1:550612933446:table/awseb-e-jcrjmidtsu-stack-AWSEBWorkerCronLeaderRegistry-1GVA6A4AV0YDW - (Aws::DynamoDB::Errors::AccessDeniedException) (Executor::NonZeroExitStatus)
This is what I also found in the log:

I have tried rebuilding my environment but that didn't make any difference.
It seems like this error is out of my hands (hope that is not the case and I have made a simple mistake) and is an EB issue with how it handles cron jobs. I don't have any dynamodb's :)
Many thanks for any help, Phil
