Improve IP/hostname detection on EC2 #488
Comments
AWS free tier can be used to debug this |
Would you mind to elaborate a bit further on this? |
SequenceServer tries to detect the IP of the computer it is running on and constructs a URL from it for sharing, like "to share the setup with your colleagues, try using http://abc.def.ghi.jkl:4567". For this to be helpful, the IP SequenceServer detects should be the public IP. AWS EC2 instances have both a public and private IP. Public IP is the one we use to ssh to the instance, etc. When running SequenceServer on an EC2 instance, we would like SequenceServer to detect the public IP and use that for showing the sharing URL, but it only detects the private IP. Does that help? |
Thanks, it makes no more sense. |
Well, the issue refers to a message displayed by SequenceServer on startup:
We want the URL in the line |
I'll give it a try :) |
SequenceServer shows private IP and URL of an EC2 instance on startup. I wonder if it is possible for it to be more accurate here.
