Description:

A sam init fails to bootstrap a simple python hello-world template on Windows platform.
You may find this command example in sam init --help and also at https://github.com/aws-samples/cookiecutter-aws-sam-python:

sam init --location gh:aws-samples/cookiecutter-aws-sam-python

this command produces the following error:

'C:\Users\{USER}\AppData\Local\Temp\tmppht_go78' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

It looks like the error happens in the post_gen_project script which is a part of the https://github.com/aws-samples/cookiecutter-aws-sam-python repository.

[fedor-pavlov]

Moving this to: aws-samples/cookiecutter-aws-sam-python#47

As a workaround, use sam init without --location option.
