I have an Elastic Beanstalk app running on Docker set up with autoscaling. When another instance is added to my environment as a result of autoscaling, it will 502 while the instance goes through the deployment process. If I ssh into the relevant box, I can see (via docker ps) that docker is in the process of setting itself up.
How can I prevent my load balancer from directing traffic to the instance until after the instance deployment has actually completed? I found this potentially related question on SuperUser, but I think my health check URL is set-up properly -- I have it set-up to point at the root of the domain, which definitely 502s when I navigate to it in my browser, so I suspect that's not the cause of my problem.

I have a web application running on Elastic Beanstalk in load balanced environment however when I changed the configuration to a "single instance" environment the application returns a 408 Request Timeout with every https browser request to the server (custom domain).
The environment health in my AWS console shows everything is running okay so I am baffled by what could be causing the problem. When I change the configuration back to 'load balanced' everything works fine again.

Since you are using HTTPS with custom domain, when you switch to a single instance, the HTTPS functionality is lost. To make HTTPS work on a single instance, you need to obtained new SSL certificate (AWS ACM can't be used), and deploy it on your instance though re-configured Nginx:

I have created a custom image in AWS elastic beanstalk and configured IIS and Management Services as well. but when using the said custom image to deploy an application. the instance spins up and i can see the IIS welcome page but the deployment never completes and the environment stays in pending (grey) state forever. Any help on how i can resolve this is much appreciated.
I have set up a Docker container running on port 5566 with a small Django application. The Docker image is uploaded into the ECR and later used by Fargate container(s).
I have set up an ECS cluster with a VPC.
After creating the Task Definition and Service, the Service starts up 2 tasks (as it is supposed to):
Here's the Service's Network Access (with health check grace period on 300s):
I also set up an Application Load Balancer (with DNS) with a target group for the service, but the health checks seem to be failing:
Here's the health check configuration:
Because the health checks are failing the tasks are terminated and new ones are started after ~every 5 minutes.
Here's the container's port mapping:
As one cannot access the Fargate container (via SSH for example) and the logs are empty, how should I troubleshoot the issue?
I have tried to follow every step in the Troubleshoot Your Application Load Balancer.
Feel free to ask additional information.
can you confirm once, your application is working on port 5566 inside docker?
you can check logs in cloudwatch. you'll get the link in cluster -> service -> tasks -> your task.
Can you post your ALB configuration? your Target group port?
I am hosting a Django site on Elastic Beanstalk. I haven't yet linked it to a custom domain and used to access it through the Beanstalk environment domain name like this: http://mysite-dev.eu-central-1.elasticbeanstalk.com/
Today I did some stress tests on the site which led it to spin up several new EC2 instances. Shortly afterwards I deployed a new version to the beanstalk environment via my local command line while 3 instances were still running in parallel. The update failed due to timeout. Once the environment had terminated all but one instance I tried the deployment again. This time it worked. But since then I cannot access the site through the EB environment domain name anymore. I alway get a "took too long to respond" error.
I can access it through my ec2 instance's IP address as well as through my load balancer's DNS. The beanstalk environment is healthy and the logs are not showing any errors. The beanstalk environment's domain is also part of my allowed hosts setting in Django. So my first assumption was that there is something wrong in the security group settings.
Since the load balancer is getting through it seems that the issue is with the Beanstalk environment's domain. As I understand the beanstalk domain name points to the load balancer which then redirects to the instances? So could it be that the environment update in combination with new instances spinning up has somehow corrupted the connection? If yes, how do I fix this and if no what else could be the cause?
Being a developer and newbie to cloud hosting my understanding is fairly limited in this respect. My issue seems to be similar to this one Elastic Beanstalk URL root not working - EC2 Elastic IP and Elastic IP Public DNS working
, but hasn't helped me further
Many Thanks!
Update: After one day everything is back to normal. The environment URL works as previously as if the dependencies had recovered overnight.
Obviously a server can experience downtime, but since the site worked fine when accessing the ec2 instance ip and the load balancer dns directly, I am still a bit puzzled about what's going on here.
If anyone has an explanantion for this behaviour, I'd love to hear it.
Otherwise, for those experiencing similar issues after a botched update: Before tearing out your hair in desperation, try just leaving the patient alone overnight and let the AWS ecosystem work its magic.
I have deployed a application in Amazon Elastic Beanstalk. But it became Grey State of Health somehow. Now, I am facing a lot of problem to update or change configure in this environment. So, how can I make health Green from Grey?
It must respond with 200 OK, see doc
You can set the key pair when you are deploying, then find the public IP in the EC2 instances, connect there (see doc) and check manually.
