Aws Apache Web Server

Hello pawansd,
I can communicate with your instance via ssh but am unable to communicate on port 80. Since you can connect locally via localhost, I would suspect your apache configuration. Please make sure apache is configured to listen for more than just localhost (httpd.conf or ports.conf).

I have verified my apache configuration and it is not just listening for localhost. I have same issue with mysql running on another amazon ec2 instance.
I opened port 3306 but I am unable to connect to mysql database using mysql work bench.
Currently I am connecting to mysql instance using TCP/Ip over SSH connection.
Looks like there is some fire wall block all incoming request in-spite ports are open in my security group

pawansd,
I'm guessing iptables is not set to allow traffic, please post the following output:
#netstat -ant
#iptables -L

Office for mac 2011 mac os sierra. You could try turning off iptables with:
service iptables stop

I have the exact same problem.
Installed apache. started it. opened the port 80. connection from browser times out.

Luke,
My instance is i-bb6a17d5
(I am not an expert in *ix environment.)
I ran the command that you provided to switch off the iptables
iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)

wget http://ec2-50-19-136-117.compute-1.amazonaws.com/ works on ports 80 and 3000

After turning of iptables I am able to access my webserver.

My issue was security group. The instance was in quick start group but I had opened the port to default.

I have exactly the same problem on a microinstance
I can access the site doing
w3m localhost
but not from outside,
I already open port 80 from security group options.
Te site was working well before, but the just stop working.
Thanks if some one can point me in the correct direction.
My Instance Id is
i-5f20f92e

Hi,
I took a look at your instance i-5f20f92e and your server is not accepting connections on port 80 but is on port 22.
Your security groups are open, the problem appears to be within your instance.
Please check your instance to see what you have blocking port 80, or if its set to accept traffic.

Instance 36f1ea40d2df4ae090e938962f4349ad
Apache server is running ('httpd (pid 2556) is running..') but cannot reach from browser.
Inbound security rules are ok (HTTP port 80).
Worked fine yesterday, today not.
What might be the problem?

I am running webserver(IIS8) on my amazon ec2 instance. I can browse it with localhost but not able to access with IP address or the hostname within the server. Both inbound and outbound set to allow all on security groups. is there anything i am missing to configure?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
