The deploymeteor script makes it as easy as possible to deploy a meteor app to a standard Amazon EC2 server running the latest Amazon Linux AMI.

application availability url not showing after install #10

This is of course not a bug, but as an ec2 noob it confuses me that there is no output after install/startup telling me at what url the app is running. When starting meteor locally you allways get: App running at: http://localhost:3000/.

It would be nice to have the same thing happening after deploying to EC2, since it is not obvious where the app is running.

After deploying using this script I would assume the app would be available at the ec2 Public IP when I choose the default root Url when running the script (like http://my-ec2-public-ip). When i visit this url the site is blank and no errors anywhere. This makes it hard using this script when you are not a web-server expert.

At the moment, the script doesn't actually know whether it's successfully deployed and available at the URL. There would have to be some sort of feedback from the proxy app. Currently, you can use the deploymeteor logs <env> command to see why it failed to launch.
