ReplyDeleteHow much time it taken?
Like 5-10 minutes :)
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI tried the same steps. I lookup for the domain name. It shows the IP but when I open the website it is not working. Please suggest what to do.
I am using tomcat 7 on amazon ec2 instance.
change the instance security group inbound rules, and check your URL
DeleteAlso change inbound security group to accept all requests.
ReplyDeleteOne thing you may have to do is to clear your cache (history) on your browser. My IP address was still showing on the address bar instead of domain name until I tried it in another browser and saw that it was really already working.
