aws

Hi

I was hoping someone might be able to help with an issue that I have.

Basically I want two different SSL's (as they belong to two different and independent companies) to sit on my AWS architecture but my architect is trying to tell me this is not possible, which I personally can't quite believe.

The current system has been working perfectly for around 6 months using the x 1 SSL cert, but now I want to use a 2nd SSL cert this is where the problem has raised its head.

The NH PHP Group has invited Paul Oakes to come and speak on Amazon Web Services with Elastic Beanstalk. This is a great opportunity to learn more about AWS with Beanstalk and how it supports Apps and Websites (including Drupal).

The NH PHP Group meets every 4th Thursday of the month at the Farm in Manchester, usually in the same room we have our Drupal Meet up in.

To Sign up please go to: http://www.meetup.com/NH-PHP/events/166284972/

For those who missed the Drupal meetup this month here is another chance to get out of the house!! :)

I'm looking once again into how best to monitor a large Drupal 7 app I've deployed on AWS, using nginx and PHP-FPM (5.3.21 currently). The app uses autoscaling, and the instances often don't live very long (a day is a long time). So I need some kind of logging solution that will get my logs off the instances and into some kind of centralized store.

What are people doing for this use case?

I've noticed that more than a year after I last looked into this, PHP-FPM appears to have not committed a patch to support

error_log = syslog

Hey I finally got around to joining this group and just wanted to post a quick introduction. Looking through the member list I recognize a few of you. I met Chris Shattuck and Jeremy Zerr at Boise Code Camp last year after attending their sessions. James Glasgow also put on a module building presentation last year that I enjoyed. If my memory serves me correctly I attended a presentation that Clint Tinsley did on CakePHP the year before that.

I'm having a nightmarish problem getting IE 9 to redirect from http to https. I've looked at a discussion from about a year ago (http://groups.drupal.org/node/206813), but in that case, nginx is in complete control.

In my case, I'm in AWS, and https is actually getting handled by an elastic load balancer (ELB), which is proxying over to nginx over port 80, and setting http_x_forwarded_proto:

#x_forwarded_proto stuff for elb/https issues - see http://daniel.hahler.de/handle-x-forwarded-proto-in-backend-nginx
set $my_https "off";

All,

Send me your questions you have about using Amazon Web Services (AWS) for hosting a Drupal site. I'll incorporate them into my presentation.

Thanks,
Kyle

I have been working on this for a few days now and I can not get it to work. I am having the same error after every install on my amazon EC2. I have done the exact steps as on my local machine and it will not work for me on my EC2 server. I am getting to the end of the installation right after it asks for the databases info and it goes to a page saying "Page not found. The requested page "/" could not be found." this is being displayed in the Drupal default theme so it is working. If you are reading this before I get it fixed check out dutgriff.com to see what it is displaying.

I've recently launched a Drupal 7 site using auto-scaling on AWS. The basic architecture is 2+ ELB that handle SSL, talking to multiple auto-scaled instances running nginx + php-fpm. Mostly, it's working.

I have noticed that the IP addresses logged for clients are in the 10.0.0.0/8 private network that Amazon uses. At first, I thought that HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR wasn't set, but it turns out that it is both set and correct. The problem is that settings.php wasn't set up.

I've now read the notes in setting.php, and am a bit confused.

I'm upgrading a large Drupal 5 system to run under Drupal 7 on AWS, and am trying to figure out the best practice for setting up the public files that used to be in sites/default/files.

I'm looking at a couple of the modules available for using S3 as the storage back end, and am beginning to think there has to be a better way to do this. That, or those of you who are doing large sites are doing something seriously custom that isn't making its way back into modules like AmazonS3.

I have a site that has both a large anonymous-use and logged-in participant usage. In an older version, the client used Secure Pages to get some pages into SSL, but to force most traffic back into regular HTTP if the page did not require it.

How best to implement this with Varnish or AWS?
