Amazon Web Services IDE setup

Question

I am trying to connect to the Ubuntu 14.04 IDE I have launched on Amazon Web Services. I am using the EC2 Instance Connect (browser-based SSH connection) method to connect. I don't get an error message, but all that happens is that a blank window opens (image attached). The same thing happens when I try to connect through Windows and Ubuntu. Can anybody steer me in the right direction?

Answer 1

If I understand your question correctly, you are trying to connect to your Amazon EC2 instance.

Refer to the AWS User Guide on EC2.

EC2 Instance Connect

Install EC2 Instance Connect, then connect to your instance

$ mssh i-001234a4bf70dec41EXAMPLE

Using SSH

Generate your SSH key

$ ssh-keygen -t rsa 

Push your SSH key to the EC2 instance

$ aws ec2-instance-connect send-ssh-public-key --region us-west-2 --instance-id i-001234a4bf70dec41EXAMPLE --availability-zone us-west-2b --instance-os-user ec2-user --ssh-public-key ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Log in to your EC2 Instance

$ ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa [e-mail]
