How to use run deck service from local browser using up address?

I have installed rundeck in docker using ec2 instance. When I run the image and start rundeck. It's fine.

Lynx http:localhost:4440

Us able to show rundeck dashboard.

But, how can I access this rundeck from Windows browser?

I tried using address but connection refused.

Solution

  • In order to access this from outside for your setup, you might have to ensure the following things:

    1. Ensure that host server (ec2) is forwarding ports to the docker container. You should have used -p or -ports when launching the container for this. Test: From your EC2 instance, you should be able to access: http://localhost:4440

    2. Ensure you have a public IP assigned to your EC2. You should be able to see that from your aws ec2 console: http://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2

    3. Ensure that your security group(s) for that instance has InBound connections to accept 4440 from your IP or rest of the world.

    After this, your http://:4440 should work. I hope I got your question correct.

    Let me know how it goes,
