ec2 not accepting inbound traffic
So, I've gone through multiple SO threads, but I'm unable to do it.
I launched an ec2 instance and installed ubuntu18.04 to it. I installed nginx on top of it.
Now I'm trying to browse my server IP via browser, but it shows it can't be reached. I tried wget localhost on shell and it downloads a file with content If you see this page, the nginx web server is successfully installed and working. Further configuration is required., which means nginx is working fine.
Now, I edited my Security group config associated with the instance as follow:-
Inbound Settings
Outbound Settings
But, it's still not working. What am I missing?
amazon-web-services nginx amazon-ec2

Have you tried simply querying it with cURL from the outside?

cURL gives you tons of information and isn't restricted by quite a lot of things that actually cause problems with browsers.

- Can you please check internal firewall on your instance, it is enabled or not. If not try to disable it and see.
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-firewall-with-ufw-on-ubuntu-16-04
- Secondly, have you installed any webserver on EC2, otherwise it may not be able to find anything on localhost. There should be a webserver to listen to request on port 80.
