Hi All,

I am trying to configure the AWS hosted Discourse CLI and the API is needed to be called at http://{ip}:3000

I have setup the “Inbound TCP” rule on AWS but it isn’t working. Is there anyone who can help with the issue?

Error Details:

You either need to follow [discourse/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md) or use bitnami’s support.

Thanks for your reply, I was running the Bitnami’s instance but looks like now I will move it to fresh installation on Ubuntu.
