Question

An error occurred (InvalidLocationConstraint) when calling the CreateBucket operation: The specified location-constraint is not valid when using the command

aws s3api create-bucket --bucket my-bucket
--create-bucket-configuration LocationConstraint=region

If your region is us-east-1 then you simply run the command without the --location constraint because by default bucket is created in the us-east-1 region
