Cannot connect to jupyter notebook on Amazon AWS Ec2 instance

Question

I'm running Amazon Linux 2 AMI EC2 instance. On the instance, I'm able to install anaconda. After setting jupyter notebook config etc. I tried to open jupyter notebook on Chrome using the url https://ip-xxx-xx-x-xx.us-east-2.compute.internal:8888/ from nohup.out. The link never worked.

1. Here is my Network settings:

2. And here is my jupyter notebook config:

c = get_config()
c.IPKernelApp.pylab = 'inline'
c.NotebookApp.certfile = u'/home/ec2-user/certs/mycert.pem'
c.NotebookApp.ip = '*'
c.NotebookApp.open_browser = False
# Your password below will be whatever you copied earlier
c.NotebookApp.password = u'xxxxx'
c.NotebookApp.port = 8888

3. And here is the log after running nohup jupyter notebook :

[I 15:51:03.957 NotebookApp] Writing notebook server cookie secret to /home/ec2-user/.local/share/jupyter/runtime/notebook_cookie_secret
[I 15:51:04.525 NotebookApp] JupyterLab extension loaded from /home/ec2-user/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/jupyterlab
[I 15:51:04.525 NotebookApp] JupyterLab application directory is /home/ec2-user/anaconda3/share/jupyter/lab
[I 15:51:04.528 NotebookApp] Serving notebooks from local directory: /home/ec2-user/Notebook
[I 15:51:04.528 NotebookApp] The Jupyter Notebook is running at:
[I 15:51:04.528 NotebookApp] https://ip-xxx-xx-x-xx.us-east-2.compute.internal:8888/
[I 15:51:04.528 NotebookApp] Use Control-C to stop this server and shut down all kernels (twice to skip confirmation).

I believe it should be a security setting issue. But I already allowed SSH traffic from anywhere and also allow HTTPs traffic from the internet.

Anything wrong with the above? Please share if you have any clues. Thanks!!

Answer 1

Did you try using the public dns that's listed on your EC2 instance? This is considering you have configured your EC2 in a public subnet that has an internet gateway.
