Getting Started with Amazon S3

http://fiachtest.s3.amazonaws.com/HelloWorld.html

Violá – "Hello World" on Amazon S3.

I used S3Fox Firefox plugin, created a ‘bucket’ called "fiachtest",and uploaded a file.

One "gotcha" was that you have to set the ACL list to "Read" for everyone, or else you get an error:

<Error>
<Code>AccessDenied</Code>
<Message>Access Denied</Message>
<RequestId>610A8339214A7E05</RequestId>

Otherwise easy-peasy.

Restarting stuff with Putty

Restart machine:

/sbin/reboot

Restart Apache

/etc/init.d/apache2/restart

Check IP addresses:

ifconfig

This was all trying to add two new IP addresses to Apache, on a Ubuntu box over Putty. I found that I needed to edit /etc/apache2/ports.conf and add
Listen <IP>:80 for the new IP addresses.

About 2 days downtime trying to figure it out, but got it eventually.
