AWS deployment instructions

[A5HRAJ]

Can anyone post detailed instructions for AWS deployment? I have an instance of Podsync running, but nothing loads when I go to its address.

I have the same issue - I got "create complete" on AWS, I see a feed URL in Outputs and when I try to open it, I get Failed to open URL. Please advise.

I just made it work, here some hints which might help you if you are a little bit familiar with AWS:

• You can edit the podsync config by downloading/editing/uploading cloud_formation.yml when you launch the stack (first step); this helped me to tune some download timeout parameters and its also more convenient to configure the feeds there (instead of having just a single one configurable via the stack params)
• To debug, you can connect into the EC2 instance by going to the resources tab in the deployed stack; then use the EC2 view to connect into the instance; then use docker ps and docker logs -f <containerId> to print out the log
• Use the log output to determine whether podsync is even able to fetch episodes
• Remove the path of link in the outputs of the stack (PodsyncUrl) to check whether the RSS xml is even generated (i. e. http://ec2-abcdef.us-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com:8080/ should list some XML and subfolders)
