First, determine the termination reason using the Amazon EC2 console or AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI). Then, follow the troubleshooting steps for that reason. For more information, see [Instance terminates immediately](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/troubleshooting-launch.html#troubleshooting-launch-internal).


**Note:** If you receive errors when running AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) commands, [make sure that you’re using the most recent AWS CLI version](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-troubleshooting.html).
