EC2 crashes a few time a week last month
In the last month my EC2 which hosts my blog went down 2 or 3 times every week. I have no idea why because it has running totally normally before that. I checked my blog frequently so I usually restarted it pretty fast but I am trying to solve the issue completely. Just wondering how I can see the reason for the crash of my EC2? Thanks
First of all, you can view the system log to see if there are any errors on the instance: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/TroubleshootingInstances.html#troubleshooting-retrieve-system-logs
Secondly, you can view the detailed system log files to troubleshoot the issue
-
For Linux systems, you can search files under
/var/log(e.g./var/log/syslog) -
For Windows systems, you can search the Windows Logs from Event Viewer (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/shows/inside/event-viewer)
