Hi all,

The project I’m working on requires two exact duplicate wordpress multisites.

I created the first instance, installed themes, plugins, built content, etc., and created an AMI.

I then went to create a second EC2 instance from the AMI I made- but when I enter the instance IP in the url bar I am unable to connect, it just times out. I am unable to access wp-admin.

I am also unable to access if i try .xip.io directly.

If I SSH into the server I can see that bitnami has installed properly and the required services seem to be running properly.

Whats going on here? My is there something else I need to configure?

Hi @paal,

Please ensure all the processes are up and running after booting the instance.

sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh status

You can also find more information here about how to back up your instance and restore it

Thanks

Okay- I figured this out. When I went to create the new instance, it wasn't being added to the correct security group for bitnami multisite. I changed this and now all is resolved. Cheers!
