Concrete5 on AWS EC2 - Current Tutorial, Steps Not Working
Permalink
Hi,
As the title states, client is looking to have Concrete5 (newest version, as of June 2021) installed on EC2. So far, a few of the steps in the tutorial (linked below) aren't working (install mysql-server, install php-mcrypt) but I found workarounds (linked below).
After I have these, followed the "Start Up Services" step but AMI test page doesn't work. As well, "mysql -u root -p" requires a password and I cannot get past (hit enter [blank], tried AWS password, etc.)
Any help, direction or ideas would be greatly appreciated. I also posted in the Slack group too for help.
Thanks

I'm wondering if you've not opened the firewall to the EC2 instance, e.g.
https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/connect-http-...
With your mysql step, try running that command with sudo in front of it.
