I just set up JIRA on my ec2 instance after installing it via .bin installer file. But when I hit the ec2 url:

ec2-xxxxx.xxxxx.amazonaws.com

It is hitting the test success page for apache2 which I installed after JIRA installation.

How do I get to determine the correct URL for JIRA and hit the JIRA app?

Thanks

Default JIRA is running on port 8080. So you have to type the port after your URL and open the ports in your security groups (Firewall).

http://ec2-xxxxx.xxxxx.amazonaws.com:8080

If you want JIRA under a specific domain you have to install a proxy to redirect it from port 80 to 8080.

  • Thanks @Stony I did hit the 8080 port, but it is saying that webpage is not available. Has it anything to do with ec2 security group config? Do I need to add a rule to allow TCP on 8080? – Ace Jan 17 '15 at 23:44
  • Yes you have to add the port to it. – René Höhle Jan 17 '15 at 23:45
  • Yep that did it! Accepting your answer. For the records a custom TCP rule allowing TCP connexions on 8080 has to be added for the ec2 security group... – Ace Jan 17 '15 at 23:49
