Setting up on AWS EC2 instance

[benjibee]

I'm looking to get this up and running with an EC2 instance. So far I've setup the instance, SSH'd into it, and used yum to install all required packages and then run yarn install && yarn prod && yarn start without any errors.

The issue is if attempt to access it using port :9998 I always get a 404 error. If I stop yarn start and try again I get an error that the server isn't responding, so I know it's getting the requests. I've tested it in my browser and using curl -I http://localhost:9998 when SSH'd into the instance, both get the same response.

I've tried messing with the Vite config file setting the host to the private IP of the instance to no avail. I also noticed if I change the port to something like :8000 in the config, it still shows :9998 in the console so I feel like I'm doing something quite wrong here.

The root directory for the project and its files is the home directory for my instance's user: /home/ec2-user if that helps.

Hey.
If you want to change the port, you typically do that in your config.json or through the UI. For your specific situation, it might make sense to consider using the Docker package. I'm not rly familiar with EC2. I do know that many people have deployed Fredy to Vercel.

Thanks for the reply. I tried a few times after this without much progress. I finally just ran the docker file and setup a reverse proxy for the port, it's working just fine now.
