Hi, i recently launch an instance on EC2 and i need to turn it off while i am not using it and i read that in order to be able to do that i need to attach a EBS as a root device to my instance and i do not know how to do that , it there someoe that can help me ?
I have been fooling around with the hub demo and I am wondering a few things before I feel good about pulling the trigger.
How do you shutdown a server and start it back up? It seems that you can only shutdown. Does this mean I have to launch a new sever everytime I want to bring my instance back online and then restore? I don't want to leave my VM on all the time, I just want it on when I need it.
Do elastic IP cost extra? I assume I can have an elastic IP and then point my domain to it and I can then assign that to any VM I want and I always "own" that IP?
I have a setup of Turnkey Wordpress on my local machine using VMware Player.
The date and time in the Wordpress blog is wrong. It is late by about 4 days. If I go to the Web shell I get the correct time but the Webmin log has the wrong time.
I'm hoping someone here can help me with a joomla hostname resolution dilemma I'm having with a t joomla 1.5 turnkey linux vm installation I have running in my office that I'm trying to deploy soon. Right now I can access the joomla frontpage by the IP address http://192.168.1.227/ but if I change the url to the hostname I'm trying to access it as http://cointranet/ I get an Unable to connect error.
I'm not sure if this is more related to VirtualBox or to TurnKey, but either way I though I'd see if anyone had any thoughts on this. I'm having a problem on a Windows XP Pro Dell 4500 host computer booting a guest of TKL. It's a fresh install of VirtualBox 4.0.4 and I'm using the TKL LAMP stack (although I've tried a few different TKL stacks and they all result in the exact same problem). After doing the Import Appliance and starting the appliance, it opens the window, does a 3, 2, 1, 0 countdown, and then just sits on the black screen with 0 in the corner, using 100% of my CPU.
Using the server app, but this appears to be a basic problem in the core. Using VMWare player, I get an issue I don't in VirtualBox running the exact same VM. Prefer to use VMWare because I have some other machines in it that need real floppy drive access I don't seem to be able to get in VirtualBox.
Hosting on XP Pro 32 bit and using bridged network connection.
I have a development system (TKL drupal6 appliance) running on my macbook in VMware fusion. I tried to sync it with a EC2 instance (I started one for test purposes) . So I backuped my development machine en resored the backup on the Amazon ec2 instance. The results were not what I expected.
I have installed debian and have both webmin and virtualmin running without any big problems.
But now its time to get gallery, fileserver, domain and torrentserver running, but how I try to import its complaining about "Restore failed : The specified source is not a Virtualmin backup : Not a valid tar or tar.gz file"
And no matter how I search I cant find anything about how to import them ..
