I tried so many aws documentarian but not get output
when i go for connect to my EC2 console then i get this error
It would appear that you are attempting to connect to an Amazon EC2 instance by using EC2 Instance Connect.
Things to check:
The instance is running Linux
The instance is launched in a public subnet, which is defined as having a Route Table entry to points to an Internet Gateway
The instance has a public IP address, which you are using for the connection
The Network Access Control Lists (NACLs) are set to their default "Allow All" values
A Security Group associated with the instance that permits inbound access on port 22 (SSH) either from the IP range of the EC2 Instance Connect service, or from the whole Internet (0.0.0.0/0)
Your corporate network permits an outbound SSH connection (try alternate networks, eg home vs work vs tethered to your phone)
Given the information you have provided, I would suggest checking that the instance was launched in a Public Subnet.

I'm trying to connect my friend's MySQL database remotely but I'm getting connection timeout error. I tried to ssh. But same result.
Then I check that instance. It has public IP. Also allowed 3306 and 22 ports on the security group. Allowed 100th rule for all sources in subnet NACL.
What I'm missing? Is there any other way to block those traffic? Can anyone help me? I'm a still beginner
When an SSH connection times-out, it is normally an indication that network traffic is not getting to the Amazon EC2 instance.

Based on your descriptions, I would suggest checking whether the instance was launched in a public subnet.
I found the reason. That instance was deployed in a private subnet and didn't have inbound access.
Solution:-
I deployed a bastion host in a public subnet and used SSH agent forwarding to access the instance through the bastion host.
I'm working with AWS, I have an EC2 instance (Amazon Linux) but I can't connect to it, I've checked all VPC parameters and they are enabled as well as the instance, but when I try to connect it using EC2 Instance Connect I get this message:
I'm using the default user account, also I generated a key pair however I'm getting this other message:
Also, session manager can't connect.
So my question is: what settings do I need to update or check in order to connect to my EC2 instance?
Thanks a lot for your comments.
There are multiple ways to login to an Amazon EC2 instance.
SSH
Your screenshot shows that you are wanting to login via SSH, but it is saying that no Keypair was selected when the instance was launched. Therefore, this option is not available for you.
EC2 Instance Connect
If you ware wanting to login to the Amazon EC2 instance using EC2 Instance Connect and you are experiencing connectivity problems, then make sure that your Security Group permits Inbound access on port 22 from the IP address range of the EC2 Instance Connect service (not your own IP address).
This is because the EC2 Instance Connect client on your computer connects to AWS on port 443 (as a web connection), and then the traffic goes from the EC2 Instance Connect service to the EC2 instance as a normal SSH connection on port 22. Therefore, the Security Group needs to permit Inbound connections on port 22 from the IP address range of the EC2 Instance Connect service (or you can be lazy and just select 0.0.0.0/0, but that is a lower level of security).
You can find the IP address ranges for AWS services at: AWS IP address ranges - AWS General Reference
Please note that your EC2 instance must be in a public subnet and you must connect via a public IP address.
AWS Systems Manager Session Manager
The Session Manager connects in a totally different way, without using SSH. It requires an Agent to be installed on the EC2 instance (and it is there by default if you launched from an Amazon Linux AMI). This Agent then creates an Outbound connection to AWS, so it does not require any Inbound security rules (but it does require the default "Allow All" Outbound rule).
Session Manager has the additional benefit that it allows you to connect to EC2 instances that are in private subnets, as long as the EC2 instance can access the Internet via a NAT Gateway or if the VPC has a VPC endpoint for Systems Manager.
I have created an EC2 instance with proper inbound rules but still, I'm not able to connect to an EC2 instance using terminal or EC2 instance connect.
Security group inbound rules:

Your Security Group looks good, but "Operation timed out" indicates that there is no communication to the instance.
Things to check:
The EC2 instance has been launched in a public subnet (defined as a subnet with a Route Table entry pointing to an Internet Gateway)
The Network ACLs are at their default "Allow All" settings (There is generally no need to change NACL settings)
The instance is running Linux
Your network allows outbound SSH connections (try Home vs Office vs Tethered via your phone)
I have read several stackoverflow posts, but none seem to help.
I want to ssh into my ec2 instance, so I downloaded the private key file as stated in the instructions from aws. After executing "sudo ssh -v -i ubuntu#", my ssh server hangs with no success or failure message.
I made sure my ec2 instance can accept ssh connections and that my private key file does have the correct permissions. Any other debugging steps to resolve this issue ?

Well, I am almost giving up on aws it is really hard to do simple things here. My problem is I am following this link to setup cpanel for commercial use,
https://blog.cpanel.com/part-2-how-i-built-a-cpanel-hosting-environment-on-amazon-aws/
I set up my VPC, Subnet, Internet Gateways, Elastic IPs and Route Tables and still can not connect to my ec2. it is frustrating that I am wasting time over an ssh problem which can be solved in a matter of seconds in OVH and here AWS ruining my day any ideas?
I set up my VPC, Subnet, Internet Gateways, Elastic IPs and Route Tables
I really expect to connect to my ec2 with ease and be able to add more ec2/s to the service
To be able to SSH into an Amazon EC2 instance, you'll need the following:
An Amazon VPC (the default one is fine, or create your own)
An Internet Gateway attached to the VPC (to connect it to the Internet)
A public subnet, which is defined as a subnet that has a route table where the route table sends traffic destined for 0.0.0.0/0 to the Internet Gateway
An Amazon EC2 instance in the public subnet, presumably a Linux instance since you want to SSH to it
When launching the instance, nominate a Keypair. If you launch from an Amazon-provided AMI (eg Amazon Linux 2), the keypair will be copied to /users/ec2-user/.ssh/authorized_keys at startup.
The instance should either be launched with Auto-assign Public IP to receive a random public IP address, or associate the instance with an Elastic IP address to associate a static IP address
A security group attached to the EC2 instance permitting inbound SSH access (port 22) either from 0.0.0.0/0 or your own IP address
Don't play with the Network Access Control List (NACL) settings - they default to allowing all traffic in/out
To connect to the instance:
ssh -i YOUR-KEYPAIR.pem ec2-user#IP-ADDRESS
If the connection is immediately rejected, it suggests a problem with the keypair.
If the connection takes some time before failing, it suggests a network-related problem because it is unable to contact the instance. Some corporate networks block outbound SSH access, so try again from a different network (home vs office, or even tethered via your phone) to try and identify the issue.
