Hello everyone, i need help regarding the following:
After adding our domain to AWS and routing traffic to our instance by doing the elastic IP thing etc, will our WordPress EC2 instance still be accessible from the public IP address?
Currently, I have my wordpress website on AWS, but instead of adding my domain to AWS, I am using Cloudflare. Something like this:
— Record Name: A-record
— Name: Domain name (@ for root)
— IPv4 Address: IPv4 address of my AWS instance set up earlier.
Currently, my website on AWS is accessible from both the IP address and domain name, and Google is indexing the IP address as well, which looks quite unprofessional. I want my instance only be availed from domain name.
Is there any way to have our WordPress websites on AWS something like we have on GoDaddy, hostinger and other hosting providers. A dedicated cpanel etc.
Waiting for your response.
Thankyou .
I am using AWS EC2 instance and I can connect to it using username and key-value pair (file). But I'd need to connect (over Wordpress) to the server and it's asking me to enter a password.
How and where can I find the password which I can type in? (The only password, or better said private key, I am familiar with is in the .pem file)
Here is the screenshot: https://prnt.sc/gAdr9Y0DSaJb

Hello, I am a user who is working on the practice of migrating a shopping mall company to aws. Could you recommend a cost-effective EC2 instance type to build a server that 40 million customers can access at the same time?
I am thinking about the infrastructure of a shopping mall web server that uses four available areas in Seoul Region by utilizing Application Load Balancer and Auto Scaling.
Additionally, I am considering whether to use Application load balancer or Network load balancer when configuring the web server, so please recommend which load balancer is good.
Thank you.
Hello!
I am using AWS for the first time ever and got this email. I have an EC2 instance and using Amazon SES for transactional emails for my website. Not sure what exactly I need to do. Any help/direction would be much appreciated. I searched on re:Post but couldn't find a similar post.

Yesterday, my ec2 instance was working perfectly but today I can not ssh into it. I have rebooted, stopped and started my instance, then made sure I have the correct public dns when trying to ssh. I have also ensured that my security groups allow port 22 on my ip address. For debugging purposes, I allowed all IPs for my SSH and it still did not work.
error: `22: Operation timed out`
I tested SSH into my other instance and that seemed to work perfectly. I have not changed my VPC settings or my Subnet settings at all since creation so I am not sure how they would be causing this issue. Please help!
I was able to successfully start my game via Gamelift using the compute type "Managed EC2" and the corresponding build upload from my game (Windows 2012 R2).
Now I have tried it with Compute type "Anywhere" and followed this step by step guide: https://latam-es-resources.awscloud.com/aws-news-blog/introducing-amazon-gamelift-anywhere-run-your-game-servers-on-your-own-infrastructure
When I start my game server here on my hardware (laptop), the startup hangs when executing "Init SDK" and does not continue.
Btw: If I run GameLiftLocal on the laptop and then start the game server, the game server starts without problems.
I do not understand what is missing here.
Do I need to install anything else on the target hardware (laptop) for "Anywhere Fleet" or create any prerequisites?
I use a Windows 10 Pro laptop for "Anywhere Fleet".
New to AWS.
I have created an EC2 Windows 2016 Server with the below Security Inbound Rules:

Installed the IIS Server after logging using RDP.
Copied the Public DNS URL and pasted it in normal browser window and also in incognito tab.
Able to get the IIS Home page in Incognito Browser Tab but not in normal browser Window.
**Update**:
* Able to browse with the Elastic IP in normal browser window but not with the Public IPv4 DNS.
Could anyone suggest to me where I'm doing wrong?
