I am trying to set up Elastic Beanstalk to connect to my existing AWS-hosted Oracle DB (the on-demand kind, not the Bring-your-own-license kind), but when I use the Elastic Beanstalk Console >> Environment Details >> Edit Configuration >> Database utility, I'm not even presented with an option to connect to an existing AWS RDS. The only option they provide is to "Create an RDS DB Instance with this environment". Fine, I'm flexible... there's more than one way to skin a cat, but when I attempt to Create an RDS DB (Oracle) Instance (using their drop-down "Oracle se-1" option), I get the error message "DB Instance class not supported for oracle db engine."
Is there a workaround? I just want to give my beanstalk access to my existing Oracle RDS and am grateful for any suggestions anyone has to offer. Please explain slowly... this is a new environment for me.
