Coursera AWS Cloud Technical Essentials help Exercise 3: Launching an EC2 Instance

Hi All. i am taking AWS Cloud Technical Essentials, and when i try to setup my ec2 instance everything apears to launch. it shows running and 2/2 checks. but i cant get to the public ip, to find the page holder. ive cleared my cache, tried a incognito browser, tried from a separate network all the same results. i also cant ping the public ip. i have followed thru the lab, and all i end up with is "this site cant be reached" . sorry 0 knowledge of virtual systems also im sorry if this is in the wrong place :)

Resolved Just an FYI i dont know why this fixed it but.... i loaded it with a different instance type Amazon Linux 2023 AMI to Amazon Linux 2 AMI and it worked like it was suppose to. thanks

Thanks for updating with the resolution. I've also encountered the same problem in the Coursera course. Just reported it as an issue, hope they fix it soon.

I also encountered this problem in the Coursera course, AWS Cloud Technical Essentials (Week 2). By following your solution, I managed to make it work by using Amazon Linux 2 AMI (Don't use the default). Thank you.

for the Amazon Linux 2023 AMI you should use this code: #!/bin/bash -ex wget https://aws-tc-largeobjects.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/DEV-AWS-MO-GCNv2/FlaskApp.zip unzip FlaskApp.zip cd FlaskApp/ yum -y install python3-pip pip install -r requirements.txt yum -y install stress export PHOTOS_BUCKET=${SUB_PHOTOS_BUCKET} export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=<INSERT REGION HERE> export DYNAMO_MODE=on FLASK_APP=application.py /usr/local/bin/flask run --host=0.0.0.0 --port=80

be aware that you have to insert your region after copying.
