Hello Every one, I'm starting with AWS by trying to build a personal blog with downloadable content from S3 (PDF and images mostly for now) . I'm concerned at this point by data transfer costs when users download this content. Is my concern legitimate ? is it better to avoid downloadable content in this case if it will incur unpredictable costs ? Thanks in advance

HI All, I'm still very much a novice with AWS and I'm following this tutorial to learn more [Build a Serverless Web Application](https://aws.amazon.com/getting-started/hands-on/build-serverless-web-app-lambda-apigateway-s3-dynamodb-cognito/). In my own test account I've followed this tutorial without issue. I'm currently trying to apply the same tutorial in a restricted environment where I don't have access to Amplify. I figured I could get away with swapping Amplify in this tutorial S3, however I'm getting some odd behaviour. * [Amplify hosted site](https://i.imgur.com/ZfcGqC1.png) * [S3 hosted site](https://i.imgur.com/cYx8gNN.png) I'm using this [github repo](https://github.com/alinenaoe/wildrydes-site) website for both. I'm creating the bucket and uploading the files via TF. ``` resource "aws_s3_bucket" "mrw-example-bucket" { bucket = "mrw-example" tags = { Name = "mrw-example" } } resource "aws_s3_bucket_acl" "mrw-example-bucket-acl" { bucket = aws_s3_bucket.mrw-example-bucket.id acl = "public-read" } resource "aws_s3_bucket_website_configuration" "mrw-example-bucket-website-config" { bucket = aws_s3_bucket.mrw-example-bucket.id index_document { suffix = "index.html" } error_document { key = "error.html" } } resource "aws_s3_bucket_public_access_block" "mrw-example-bucket-pab" { bucket = aws_s3_bucket.mrw-example-bucket.id block_public_acls = false block_public_policy = false } resource "aws_s3_bucket_policy" "mrw-example-bucket-policy" { bucket = aws_s3_bucket.mrw-example-bucket.id policy = file("policy.json") } resource "aws_s3_bucket_cors_configuration" "mrw-example-cors-config" { bucket = aws_s3_bucket.mrw-example-bucket.id cors_rule { allowed_headers = ["*"] allowed_methods = ["PUT", "POST", "GET"] allowed_origins = ["*"] max_age_seconds = 3000 } } ###WEBSITE FILES### locals { content_type_map = { html = "text/html", js = "application/javascript", css = "text/css", svg = "image/svg+xml", jpg = "image/jpeg", ico = "image/x-icon", png = "image/png", gif = "image/gif", pdf = "application/pdf" } } resource "aws_s3_object" "mrw-example-bucket-objects" { for_each = fileset("website/", "**/*.*") bucket = aws_s3_bucket.mrw-example-bucket.id key = each.value source = "website/${each.value}" etag = filemd5("website/${each.value}") content_type = lookup(local.content_type_map, regex("\\.(?P<extension>[A-Za-z0-9]+)$", each.value).extension, "application/octet-stream") } ``` My question to you all, is why is the behaviour different? It feels like I've missed something obvious somewhere.

Wordpress website (bitnami package) running on Lightsail instance stops displaying after 2-3 days, requiring a restart. Bitnami offers a built-in diagnostic tool which states that ports 22, 80 and 443 are not accessible remotely at the time this issue persists. Lightsail instance networking/firewall settings show that the ports in question are enabled. Rebooting the Lightsail instance resolves the issue, but the problem repeats itself after 2-3 days. We have to keep restarting the server every couple days to keep the website live. Would like to find a reasonable solution.

I have several pages in an S3 bucket with redirects like this: http://domain.com/implementation -> http://domain.com/implementing-test http://domain.com/implementation/studies -> http://domain.com/implementing-test http://domain.com/implementation/purchasing -> http://domain.com/implementing-test http://domain.com/implementation/training -> http://domain.com/implementing-test http://domain.com/implementation/testing -> http://domain.com/implementing-test So as you can see I want all traffic to the /implementation page and its sub pages to go to the new implementing-test page. The problem I'm having is the words after the second slash are being retained, so http://domain.com/implementation/studies actually redirects to http://domain.com/implementing-test/studies which doesn't exist. I've tried a couple different variations in the JSON with no luck. Here's where I am now which is causing the above problem. { "Condition": { "KeyPrefixEquals": "implementation/studies" }, "Redirect": { "ReplaceKeyPrefixWith": "implementing-test" } } After seeing an answer on Reddit I tried this, but got the same results. { "Condition": { "KeyPrefixEquals": "/implementation" }, "Redirect": { "ReplaceKeyPrefixWith": "implementing-test" } } Someone else suggested using ReplaceKeyWith instead of ReplaceKeyPrefixWith but that also yielded the same result. Any suggestions?

I currently have a website hosted on S3 with a working RDS database connection. I would like to run a dynamic web scraper from this site that activates based on user input. Ideally, the user will click a button which will activate a search for a specific product across a specified list of retail sites. This data will be displayed on the site and also saved to the database. It doesn't matter if the data goes directly to the site or to the database. I would like to use an existing web scraping tool such as Scrapy. What is the best way to handle this?

So currently I have a Lightsail instance, with a domain connected to it. I SSH into the instance and do `./run.sh` which is a script I have to start a webserver. Great, the webserver now works and the domain is also working. But as soon as I disconnect the SSH connection, the website is no longer up. If I go back into it again, I can see that the processes are not running anymore, but my instance has been active this entire time. How do I keep it running when I'm not connected to it?

I have an S3 bucket set up for "Static Website Hosting", a CloudFront distribution with our own SSL certificate and allowing Host header, a Global Accelerator IP address attached to an Application Load Balancer. The Application Load Balancer does a 301 redirect to the S3 bucket. I know that you can set an EC2 instance as a target group and forward to that to preserve the original URL. Can you also preserve the original URL using this method of 301 redirect to a Cloudfront distribution tied to an S3 bucket?

Hi team, I want to secure my Http API GW (not REST API GW) with WAF, as the HTTP API GW doesn't support the WAF I read this article to do the workaround : https://wellarchitectedlabs.com/security/300_labs/300_multilayered_api_security_with_cognito_and_waf/3_prevent_requests_from_accessing_api_directly/ but in my case the origin of my distribution is an S3 bucket (static website hosting is not enabled) that host Angular APP : **users **=> **CloudFront **(with angular App in s3 bucket as Origin : this s3 bucket is not configured with static website hosting because content is served from CloudFront not directly from S3) => A**PI GW** = > **NLB **=> **fargate cluster** is there a way to use the method explained in the above article when my origin is an S3 bucket with no static web hosting enabled ? my objective is to protect my HTTP API GW with WAF, the solution on the article is perfect with custom header and secret manager but not applicable in my case because my DF distribution has S3 as origin.

I already have a working public domain and a S3 bucket for the HTML files. I also have a RDS database that is connected to a MySQL database. I would like to be able to run queries on the RDS database and dynamically display, sort, add, remove, and update records based on site user inputs. For example, I have a basic search function, and I would like that search function to run a query to select the relevant records from the database and display them on the site. Is there a way I can accomplish this within S3, or is there another platform I should use within AWS?

We are trying to identify the better math metric logic for the alarm threshold where we build threshold on the request count that is if we receive 100 requests and 10 percent of these return http error code 5XX errors trigger an alarm. Than it must create cloud watch alarm.

Hi there, I just set up an s3 site but cannot figure out how to create a link image preview. I am used to using Yoast through WordPress but can't seem to find anything similar for AWS. Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, I am new to AWS services. I have bought a domain (on AWS) and created a Wordpress instance on Lightsail (Bundle 0.5GB) and it was working fine. On the second day it went unreachable ("Unhealthy" in the Health Checks). So I have deleted the Wordpress instance and the DNS; then I made all the steps from beginning and the Wordpress website was again up and working. Today, about 4 hours ago, my Wordpress is again unreachable ("Unhealthy" in the Health Checks). When I try with a "curl -v" I get: ``` * Trying 3.xx.xxx.x... * TCP_NODELAY set * Connected to xxxxxx.org (3.xx.xxx.x) port 80 (#0) > GET / HTTP/1.1 > Host: xxxxxx.org > User-Agent: curl/7.64.1 > Accept: */* ``` and it gets stuck there. The static IP and the domain name are correct. Can it be a Lightsail failure? What I should check? If useful, I can write IP and domain name in clear. Since it is a website for helping the Ukraine people, I would really like to get it working asap. Thanks, Domenico

Hi There I am new to computer clouding and I have been asked if I could run a latency test on our system. Basically our hardware communicates via the internet to our application which is hosted on AWS Cloud using Fargate with AWS ECS to run containers (as detailed below). My question is, is it possible to run a latency test when our application is structured on the cloud and structured in such way? UI Hosting: AWS Fargate with AWS ECS to run containers, NLB, AWS Ireland region. Backend: AWS ECS with AWS EC2 to run containers, AWS ECS with AWS Fargate, AWS Ireland region.

Suppose I have 2 VPCs, VPC-A and VPC-B. My workspace (where traffic originates from) is in VPC-A, and I have my application in VPC-B. These VPCs are attached by a transit gateway. These VPCs are in two accounts, Account-A and Account-B respectively. Suppose I want to make a private S3 bucket in Account-B. This S3 bucket houses a static site which we only want to make visible to the interconnected network, VPC-A and VPC-B. How would I go about doing this without modifying any resources in Account-A? Note: It seems you cannot just use an S3 Gateway Service Endpoint. As per the docs, > Endpoint connections cannot be extended out of a VPC. Resources on the other side of a VPN connection, VPC peering connection, transit gateway, AWS Direct Connect connection, or ClassicLink connection in your VPC cannot use the endpoint to communicate with resources in the endpoint service. (This is because a typical "Gateway" Service endpoint works on the principle of actively modifying a subnet's route table so that IPs that match the current public S3 IPs are redirected through the endpoint. If modifications are only in Account-B, then adding these route tables would be impossible)

I'm trying to follow the demo in the blog posts: 1. [Signed cookie-based authentication with Amazon CloudFront and AWS Lambda@Edge: Part 1 -Authentication](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/networking-and-content-delivery/signed-cookie-based-authentication-with-amazon-cloudfront-and-aws-lambdaedge-part-1-authentication/) and 2. [Signed cookie-based authentication with Amazon CloudFront and AWS Lambda@Edge: Part 2 – Authorization](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/networking-and-content-delivery/signed-cookie-based-authentication-with-amazon-cloudfront-and-aws-lambdaedge-part-2-authorization/) However, there aren't any files provided for `login.html`, `restricted-content.html`, and `assets/*`. My questions are: 1. How could I find these .html files, or how could I create these files on my own? 2. How could I modify the Lambda@Edge function if I wanted to log the email addresses to a file in an S3 bucket?

We have a quite simple webapp infrastructure: 2 backend EC2 in a target group, internet facing ALB and CloudFront. Session stickiness is turned on on the target group. When we have only one default behavior with Managed-CachingDisabled and Managed-AllViewer policies session stickiness is fine. Obviously this doesn't cache anything. When I add a new behavior to cache resources in media folder session stickiness doesn't work any more. This policy uses one query string param in cache key, otherwise it is like Managed-CachingOptimized both CF and ALB on HTTPS, same SSL cert installed on both. I don't really understand why stickiness stops working even if we have AWSALB cookie on cached items too. Please let me know if you need any other details.

Previously I could update CSS for Cognito. Now when I upload a new file, I get a success message, but the hosted UI does not use the new CSS. Seems like a new bug on AWS side but is there anything else that needs to be done to see changes reflected in the UI?

My website, www.natalielynn.net has been down for some time. It was originally built in 2019 and I have kept up to date on paying for hosting and such. I have spoken with the developer and she says it looks like it "has expired". How would it expire? I also checked with wordpress but they do not have access to my site as it was developed off of a remote version of wordpress. When I spoke with AWS, they stated everything looked ok on their end. Nobody seems to know what is happening. As I paid a lot of money to have the site created, it is very valuable and important for me to keep it live. Best, Natalie Lynn

Hi Team, what are the AWS services and products equivalent to google analytics to catch the user's behaviours from the frontend ? to set it up in AWS environment.

Hi, I am very new in domain registration and setup but I am willing to learn. I have done the following and couldn’t make it work so far: I have transferred domain from Bluehost to Route53 without dns zone transfer. I have cancelled hosting from Bluehost I have created a lightsail instance and created static ip I have created Hoste Zone on Route 53 with the following record: NS from Lightsail SOA Verified domain on Route 53 using SES and published the records to Route 53 which added 3 CNAME record. Verification status Pending on SES When I check with DNS checker for printpluscopycenter.com A record is not resolved everywhere, only 3 – 7 places and it keeps changing… What should I do next? Thank you

Hello, I have a question, I have 2 cloudfront distributions with 2 different certificates / domains that point to the same S3 Bucket # main distribution is 123456789.cloudfront.net, with alternate domain + certificate: main.mydomain.com # second distribution is 987654321.cloudfront.net, with alternate domain + certificate: sub1.otherdomain.com On DNS (I use cloudflare) I have a CNAME for the main distribution domain: # main.mydomain.com cname to 123456789.cloudfront.net and I add other subdomains pointing to this other CNAME (for better management as I have many subdomains): # sub1.mydomain.com cname to main.mydomain.com but I also do point subdomain from the other domain to this (again because of management and some hardcoded links, **so I can't point it to it's own distribution**): # sub1.otherdomain.com cname to main.mydomain.com On theory I would need to use **cloudfront function to redirect the sub1.otherdomain.com to it's distribution (987654321.cloudfront.net)**, but it works without it and I don't know why (it shouldn't or there is some universal property of cloudfront I'm not aware about), because **there is no pointing / redirect from first distribution to the second one** configured, the **only DNS pointing to cloudfront is from main.mydomain.com** (cname to 123456789.cloudfront.net), and the **certificates are different**. Is it expected? Need to be sure for not having headaches on the future with production stuff.

I have a very simple ecommerce website with very low traffic on **Wordpress Lightsail Instance (512 MB RAM, 1 vCPU, 20 GB SSD)**. The website keeps crashing from time to time even with very low traffic ***(10-20 views a day max)***. I know the obvious solution would be to choose a higher plan but I am not convinced that would solve the problem as I don't know what's exactly going wrong. Thus, I would like to get some guidance for ***what and where to look for to solve this issue*** and also if anyone knows the possible causes?

Dear All, I have hosted a Wordpress website on Lightsail following the blog: https://lightsail.aws.amazon.com/ls/docs/en_us/articles/amazon-lightsail-using-lets-encrypt-certificates-with-wordpress The step 9 says, repeat again every 90 days. Isn't there a way to automate this? I found some articles but those were referring to nginx based deployment but I think the one I have, Lighsail used Apache. There were few more but not related to lightsail wordpress. My DNS registrar is Namecheap. Hope someone could point me to the right steps to be followed. Thanks, A

A month ago, I decided to implement a cloudfront dirstribution for a static web hosting s3 bucket when setting up a CI/CD pipeline with Buddy. My domain is managed by route 53. When changing this, I made sure to change my A and AAAA records for my site, eckmantek.com, from their default to my distribution, which is d22tb0q1u7k32l.cloudfront.net. With this set up, I began using my pipeline, but when I now navigate to my domain, my old content is still being served. I dug around in icann and found different name servers for my domain than my distro, so maybe this is related? I am still quite new, so apologies for the basicness of this question!

So I've been hosting my static website through S3 Buckets to get started and it was going great but I made a quick switch to Lightsail to explore my options (resulting in switching back to S3) but now either my nameservers are wonky (since I did have to change them for lightsail) or I've missed something in my R53 settings.. It's honestly been over a week now and im at a loss for options.. Thoughts?? Domain: http://www.whenbrainsbleed.org My endpoint still displays perfectly.. http://whenbrainsbleed.org.s3-website.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/ Any suggestions are appreciated **EDIT** Tried adjusting my S3 bucket policy - No luck. Also not too confident in my record set Setup, I feel I could've messed those up somewhere along the way, Record Sets: -alias1 -alias2 (for www.) (both linked directly to the S3 endpoint) -CNAME (working on getting CloudFront implemented eventually) -NS (Holds 3 nameservers in its value) -SOA Edited by: Martin-WBB on Jul 27, 2019 2:03 PM Edited by: Martin-WBB on Jul 27, 2019 2:48 PM
