使用AWS EC2实例登录RStudio

Question

I managed to follow all the steps to create EC2 instance and install R Server on it.

But now when I go to RStudio to connect (which looks something like "ec2-[ Public IP ]-.eu-west-3.compute.amazonaws.com:8787") I am asked a username and a password but I did not configure any:

I tried rstudio (username) and rstudio (password) but it does not work. Anyone knows how I can find the username and the password to connect? Thanks. M

Answer 1

You can create a user/password in Linux and use it to log in

#add user(s)
useradd username
echo username:password | chpasswd 

here is a detailed blog from on running R on AWS

Answer 2

If this is using the AMI from http://www.louisaslett.com/RStudio_AMI/ , the default password recently changed to the instance ID of the EC2. A code starting with i- and 17 alphanumeric characters, for example.

Username is still rstudio .

Answer 3

I was having the same issue (I believe there is no ubuntu password for an AWS EC2 Instance and R studio requires one).

You can add a new user by typing the following: sudo adduser YOURUSERNAME and follow the terminal instructions (press enter to skip the info you do not want to give). Head over to the IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8787 and you should be able to log in now.

How to install R studio 3.4.4, upgrade to 3.6.0 and add a username (Ubuntu 18):

sudo gdebi rstudio-server-1.2.1335-amd64.deb

sudo chmod 777 -R /usr/local/lib/R/site-library

# Rstudio dependency issues (when installing devtools) - I installed from an AWS EC2 account so I need to change my root password.

sudo passwd root
su root
apt-get -y build-dep libcurl4-gnutls-dev
