I’m editing a guide of install Discourse in the AWS EC2 Instances(Ubuntu Server LTS) in Chinese Simplified. I’m also a newbie of Rails, Linux shell and Web Development. This is the part I have already edited. Is there are any errors? Thanks.

Yes, I checked it. [EC2 Security Groups] Yes. Asia Pacific (Seoul).

Next level down the stack that could be stopping it would be a firewall. Does iptables -nvL output anything? Past that is the discourse container actually running? Does it appear in a docker ps?

I entered the command, here is the output: [image] schleifer: iptables -nvL output Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 9 packets, 648 bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination Chain FORWARD (policy DROP 0 packets, 0 bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt…

I tried to visit Instances’s IPv4 Public IP, and it displayed that: [chrome-error___chromewebdata_(Laptop%20with%20HiDPI%20screen)%20(1)]

You need to use the name you’ve configured in DNS to access your instance, not the IP. Accessing discourse via IP address isn’t supported.

So you’ve not done anything to tell NameSilo about your EC2 server at Amazon? The way DNS works is that you tell the DNS server about the resources you’re trying to publish under that domain name. You need to configure an ‘a’ record at NameSilo for your Discourse instance, linked to the IP at Amazo…

[image] Lee533: What have you not done? I just bought a domain on NameSilo, but I don’t change any settings… You need to go to NameSilo and create an A record that connects your FQDN to your site. You might also need to make sure that ports 80 and 443 are not blocked.

Thanks, I have [image] Lee533: changed AWS EC2 Security Group like this so, don’t need to check ports 80 and 443 are not blocked, right?
