hi all
I've been running the EC2 GPL version for several months and have successfully bundled and uploaded backup AMIs to Amazon S3. Today I tried running an instance of one of those backups and was able to SSH into it successfully and run Virtualmin successfully.
I ran Re-check Config in Virtualmin and got this error: Failed to open /dev/pts/0 : No such file or directory
I followed the advice give here: http://www.virtualmin.com/node/8947 and ran the command: mount devpts /dev/pts -t devpts
Problem solved. Except...
I'm stuck wondering why I get the default CentOS/Apache index.html page instead of the correct index.php page for my virtual server. I checked all the IP address settings I could find and everything looks similar to the original server the backup instance was copied from. Any ideas what I can try next?
cheers

been having another try at making my backup EC2 instance run correctly...this may be a clue...
Failed to query Postfix config command to get the current value of parameter : /usr/sbin/postconf: warning: valid_hostname: invalid character 13(decimal): sofway.co.uk? /usr/sbin/postconf: fatal: unable to use my own hostname
I have no idea why the ? character has been added to the end of the hostname - the hostname is showing correctly without the ? everywhere I have checked in Virtualmin.
Apache error logs give this warning: RSA server certificate CommonName (CN) `www.sofway.co.uk' does NOT match server name!?
These are the only clues I've been able to find after hours of checking - I'm still nowhere nearer to understanding why I get the CentOS/Apache test page instead of my usual index page.
has anyone ever rebundled a
has anyone ever rebundled a GPL Virtualmin EC2 instance into an EC2 AMI that successfully or unsuccessfully creates new EC2 instances?
Or am I alone in the dark?
SOLVED
Virtualmin > Server Configuration > Change IP Address > select the option to change to a shared IP address.
Problem solved. When a new instance starts, Amazon allocates a new internal IP address. Once the shared address has been selected and set, the option to change IP address disappears.
