Drupal AMI How To Screencast

A few questions arose about how to use the Drupal Amazon EC2 AMI we released in August. We added some screenshots to the page to help show how to configure it and clarified the instructions a bit. To help further, I created a quick screencast demonstrating the process of launching the AMI, connecting it to persistent storage, and then stopping the instance and reconnecting the persistent storage to another instance.

Popping this out to full screen will let you see the details.

You can also download a Quicktime version of this screencast.

Thanks for posting this

Good post

I totally agree with Brij. Very useful.

No Drupal at Public DNS

I can’t seem to see the Drupal site after following these instructions several times.

The only thing I am doing differently is using the AWS Console instead of Elastic Fox and choosing the workhabit AMI from a search for “drupal”

I have managed to set up an instance of the AMI, attach the volume successfully, partition it, format it and run the script to move the files and db over to the EBS.

All seems to be fine and I dont get any errors but when I point my browser at the public DNS I just get a plain white page with no drupal.

I have tried to reboot the instance with the same result and was wondering if there is anything I have not done properly that could be causing this.

There seem to be some error messages in the console output that may help to isolate my problem
