I had issues installing shiny-server in ubuntu 20.04 running on an AWS EC2. Finally i figured out a way to install it from the source. Seems to have installed ok but when i go to https://<xxx>.amazonaws.com:3838/<appname>, it doesn't load up the page. Instead, it gives this error
This site can't be reached.
<xxx>.amazonaws.com took too long to respond.
ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
I gave sudo shiny-server and got this
[2021-02-02T17:30:37.418] [INFO] shiny-server - Shiny Server v1.5.16.0 (Node.js v12.20.1)
[2021-02-02T17:30:37.420] [INFO] shiny-server - Using config file "/etc/shiny-server/shiny-server.conf"
[2021-02-02T17:30:37.459] [WARN] shiny-server - Running as root unnecessarily is a security risk! You could be running more securely as non-root.
[2021-02-02T17:30:37.462] [INFO] shiny-server - Starting listener on http://[::]:3838
So that seems to be working fine.
I checked the security groups on EC2 and made sure it allows all inbound connections to port 3838. I'd appreciate any help to fix this asap.
