tail: cannot open 'log' for reading: No such file or directory #27

I've set up an AMI with blender installed but it seems that brenda doesn't start anything after starting the instances.

Are there any logfiles I can check to figure out what's wrong?

nevermind.

For everyone with similar problems: My problem was, that root login didn't work and I tried using the normal ubuntu user. This however doesn't seem to work, despite being able to set AWS_USER.

The reason root login didn't work, is that the command

perl -p -i.bak -e 's/^disable_root: 1/disable_root: 0/' /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg doesn't work on current ubuntu machines, and should actually be perl -p -i.bak -e 's/^disable_root: true/disable_root: false/' /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg
