In case of connection failure, the IDE prints out sensitive connection data (Access Key ID, which is part of login credentials, and Signature, which is presumably derived from the login credentials) to the IDE log file. See the excerpt below, I replaced the sensitive bits by 'IDeletedThis'. INFO [com.amazonaws.request]: Sending Request: POST https://elasticbeanstalk.us-east-1.amazonaws.com / Parameters: (Action: CreateStorageLocation, SignatureMethod: HmacSHA256, AWSAccessKeyId: IDeletedThis, SignatureVersion: 2, Version: 2010-12-01, Signature: IDeletedThis, Timestamp: 2012-05-02T12:39:00.327Z, ) INFO [org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultHttpClient]: I/O exception (java.net.SocketException) caught when connecting to the target host: Broken pipe INFO [org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultHttpClient]: Retrying connect WARNING [com.amazonaws.http.AmazonHttpClient]: Unable to execute HTTP request: Connect to elasticbeanstalk.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/elasticbeanstalk.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/207.171.168.69 timed out
It is actually Amazon SDK who is logging this and not us so I assume they know what they are doing and this is safe. AWSAccessKeyId is basically a username and Signature is a hash of some sort which I presume is useless without Secret Access Key.
Ok, thanks for confirming.
