i am trying to set up a site with xampp. i have succesfully connected to the instance via remote desktop and installed xampp and python (needed for my php script). now i am trying to find a way to connect to the instance's localhost via a browser in my local computer with the provided private and elastic IPs but no succefull attempt yet. i would like to configure that with a static IP or domain name (i suppose the elastic or private IP?) because my site will be used for http requests.

  • did you allow port 80/443 in your security group?
  • did you start the xampp server?

  • when logged in via remote desktop, are you able the open 'http://localhost' in a remote browser?

  • your elastic IP is the address reachable from public

  • private IP is the address reachable from within the availability zone
