Error saying Failed to request cluster info will try again when trying to join the kubernetes cluster

Question

I have created the cluster on the master and i've also got the command to execute on the nodes to join the cluster but when i run that command on the nodes, it gives the following output

Running pre-flight checks
[discovery] Trying to connect to API Server "IP_ADDRESS:6443"
[discovery] Created cluster-info discovery client, requesting info from "https://IP_ADDRESS:6443"
[discovery] Failed to request cluster info, will try again: [Get https://IP_ADDRESS:6443/api/v1/namespaces/kube-public/configmaps/cluster-info: Forbidden]

Also I'm trying this on aws
