Overview

As part of building the AMI's for the 3.1.46 release, which included Django upgrade work #1380, the build for the app AMI errored with No matching distribution found for Django==4.2.11 on the Install pip packages for app task. The AMI was building using Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS which would only have Python 3.6.8. This work should have been covered as part of the Python upgrade work in #1378, and was for the local dev environment in d909581, but not the deployment setup which uses an AWS Ubuntu AMI, independently set by querying for an AMI ID from the current release of a given image name. In order to bring production in line with our dev Ubuntu environment and unblock Django upgrades in production, we need to upgrade the server image name in the path to query as part of our packer deployment script.

Testing Instructions

• Test AMI's were built using this updated path and used to launch test stack as part of release 3.1.46. Confirm test stack url has no regressions and maintains current functionality: green.production.web.gophillygo.org
