I setup a full node on an Amazon EC2 instance running on Amazon Linux. I can see monerod
running testnet in my SSH terminal (fully synchronized).
The security group for this instance has an inbound and outbound rule that allows all connection types, protocols, and ports from any source. I'll change this later but wanted to rule out a firewall issue blocking a port.
On my windows PC I try loading a wallet like so:
./monero-wallet-cli.exe --testnet --daemon-host ec2-xxxxxxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com
replacing the xxxxxxx
with my actual ec2 link.
I get:
Error: wallet failed to connect to daemon: http://ec2-xxxxxxx.compute-1.amazonaws.com:28081. Daemon either is not started or wrong port was passed. Please make sure daemon is running or restart the wallet with the correct daemon address.
I also tried using --daemon-address
with ports 28080 and 28080 with no luck.
Not sure what else I can try to get this working, does anyone have any ideas or suggestions I can try?
