Thanks for taking the time. I have ported a lightsail instance over to EC2 and am running a t.2 larger server. I am running a wordpress site and the homepage is just a blank white page.

I have assigned the ec2 an eleastic IP and can access the wordpress server at this IP 52.27.6.201 But the domain, www.showstream.io is not available. Anyone have any ideas?

I can point the domain at the lightsail instance and it works no problem.

  • `curl -I http://www.showstream.io/` works. `curl -I https://www.showstream.io/` times out for me. This indicates it's not a DNS or AWS issue, but more likely a configuration issue on the server. – ceejayoz Feb 17 '22 at 18:09
  • Have you checked the basics like security groups for your instance? – shearn89 Feb 18 '22 at 08:45

    Also, you HTTP page comes back as a 302 redirect to HTTPS for me. But it is responding. So I would bet that you haven't opened port 443 in your security group. – shearn89 Feb 18 '22 at 08:46
  • @shearn89 Thanks! it was the 443 port in security group. You rock! – Liam Montgomery Feb 19 '22 at 20:32

Some quick debugging on the command line showed:

  1. DNS resolves
  2. HTTP queries work and come back with a 302 redirect to HTTPS
  3. HTTPS times out.

My guess in the comments was that port 443 wasn't open in the security groups, so HTTPS traffic was blocked.
