I am new to amazon web services and i want to access amazon windows instance from public-ip. I have created ec2 instance with windows server r2 2012 and add a load balancer to listen HTTP requests and also add a elastic ip to that instacne. It also has been assigned to a security group which has all-tcp, all-udp, http and HTTPS from anywhere(0.0.0.0). There is a carbon web server started as a windows service inside with (http://localhost:9443/). what i want is to access it from my web browser. i tried it with this public ip http://:9443/ but it is not accessible from browser. connection timed out,
Allowing All Traffic in EC2 Instance is not recommended.
I Suggest You Allow Specific Ports Only According to your Application Needs.
I think You have not allowed the Windows Firewall to allow traffic , Turning it off is not recommended.
Try to Create a Rule in Firewall that will allow you to Bypass the Port in the Windows Firewall.

I have created a Windows instance in EC2, also installed the Bitnami WAMP stack there. The web app runs on the instance, however it does not display on a browser outside the instance with the public IP of the instance.
I have configured the Security Groups this way:
Port 80 (HTTP inbound and outbound)
Port 443 (HTTPS inbound and outbound).
What else need to be done, in order to display the web app on a browser? Thanks
The issue was solved by disable the Firewalls on the Windows O.S directly (instance).
I'm studying AWS.
But I have a problem that I cannot connect to my web server on my AWS instance
AWS instance is Windows Server 2012
this is my instance status
I want to connect my web server via public ip 52.78.47.142 outside the AWS instance
if I connect to the private ip 172.31.15.206 inside the instance, home page showed up.
But if I connect to the public ip 52.78.47.142 inside the AWS instance and outside the AWS instance, home page didn't show up both.
although I set a new rule for http protocol at port 80, it doens't work
any helps? thanks a lot...
open up tcp:80 port in the security group(Inbound) for the IP address of the machine from where your accessing the website( In this case your Desktop or Laptop IP address).
If you are trying to access the web server from another AWS Instance open the port for that particular Instance IP. For troubleshooting case you can open up All traffic and test it(Though this is not recommended)
I'm not a hardware guys, so I'm probably missing something simple, but I did the following:
Created a Windows VM.
Activated the web server role/IIS features (I can successfully serve a page via localhost when remote desktopped in).
Made sure outgoing port 80 wasn't blocked in Windows firewall.
Created a load balancer that pointed to the instance (to make enablement of SSL easier).
I then tried pulling up both the load balancer public DNS and the VM'w and neither of them pull up any web page. The Windows VM instance reports that it's running, but the load balancer reports that the VM is OutOfService trying to forward port 80.
What do I need to do to be able to serve my web site?
Open port 80 on the AWS security group assigned to your EC2 instance.
Open inbound access to port RDP in your security group.
This will make you to access the Windows server of your ec2-instance.
Edit the Security Group assigned to your EC2 instance and add a rule to allow port 80 in Inbound and outbount rules.
I deployed a Liferay portal on Amazon EC2 windows instance how to access that on client browsers, as I am trying using public IP address but it is giving message it can't be reached.
In order:
Make sure the service is working (telnet locally on 127.0.0.1 8080)
Make sure your instance has a public IP address
Modify the local instance firewall to allow traffic on 8080 (or disable the local firewall)
4.Configure the instance's security group to allow traffic on 8080
If all of above conditions are met, then it MUST work :)
There Few Things Which You Can Check and I think Can be Issue for Windows EC2 Instance.
1) Allow Specific Port In Security Group in AWS .
2) Then You Must allow that port in Windows Firewall ( Create a Rule )

I'm fairly new to EC2, hopefully someone can point me into the correct direction. I have a WCF Service hosted in Windows Service and would like to run this on EC2. I set up an EC2 account with Windows Server 2008 with SQL Server Express. I put my service out there and ran it, I'm able to test and connect to it from the browser with the private IP on the VM, but when I try to connect to the service from my computer with the Public IP, I'm not able to do so.
Am I missing some important configuration or am I totally off? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm testing this with port 8080 and added that to the Permission Groups. I also tried to assigned an elastic IP to the instance. Thanks in advance.
EC2 provides security groups, which are essentially a firewall external to the machine. The default security group will allow SSH and RDP connections. If you want requests for port 8080 to be received by the VM, update the security group settings for the VM. You can do this interactively from the Amazon Management Console.
You also need to configure the firewall running in the windows VM, but it appears you did this when you added the service to the 'Permission Groups'.
