Gaining access to URL:8080 or URL/Jira on Amazon AWS EC2 using Atlassian Jira 2019.01.03_2101 (HVM)

[Todd DeCapua]

Seeking assistance and guidance from the community. I have spun up the "Atlassian Jira 2019.01.03_2101 (HVM) - ami-0110a97075f91a47b" on Amazon AWS EC2. Was able to SSH to get some agents installed and configured. However, cannot access Jira via URL:8080 or URL/Jira as usual. Given this is fronted by nginx, is there something that needs to be in configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf for this to work? Thanks, Todd

Hi @Todd DeCapua ,

Please check whether the security group attached to this instance allows traffic on port 80 or 8080 and whether the Jira service is running on the server itself.

Since you mention nginx, the app maybe accessible on just URL without the port number. Then nginx handles forwarding to port 8080.
