无法在浏览器中连接到Realm Object Server（AW​​S EC2实例）

Question

I've scoured the web for two days and have not found a solution. Thanks in advance for the help!

I am following this tutorial to set up a realm object server on AWS, and I launched an instance of this hvm: ami-fd81f8eb. I can ssh into my ec2 instance , but I can't connect to the server's public DNS in my web browser (tried safari and chrome).

I opened up every port in my security group that I thought may be relevant (and yes, I confirmed that this security group is selected for my ec2 instance).

• HTTP port 80 allowed on all IP's
• HTTPS port 22 allowed on all IP's
• Custom TCP Rule port 9080 allowed on all IP's
• SSH allowed on all ports on all IP's
• And I also opened "All Traffic" to all IP's

I have also noticed that commands such as sudo service realm-object-server status result in ● realm-object-server.service Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory) Active: inactive (dead)

This is leading me to believe that there is an issue with the AMI, which would be impossibly unlikely, but I can't find any file related to the realm object server in my instance. Here is what my directory looks like as I try to navigate to var/log/realm-object-server.log

Any ideas?? What am I overlooking? Thanks!

Answer 1

I was finally able to connect to my server after running these install commands:

# Setup Realm's PackageCloud repository
curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/realm/realm/script.deb.sh | sudo bash

# Update the repositories
sudo apt-get update

# Install the Realm Object Server
sudo apt-get install realm-object-server-developer

# Enable and start the service
sudo systemctl enable realm-object-server
sudo systemctl start realm-object-server

I had thought that because I was using an AMI provided by realm (ami-fd81f8eb) that the realm object server would already be installed, but it seems that this was not the case.
