Ec2 instance on AWS apt- get not working

问题:

I have Ec2 instance on AWS with Amazon Ubuntu.

When i try to download any thing, I am unable to do so.

For Ex:

~# apt-get update

0% [Connecting to ap-southeast-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com (103.246.148.161)] [Connecting to security.ubuntu.com (91.189.91.15)

Another Ex will be

~# wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/aws-cli/awscli-bundle.zip

--2014-04-09 07:27:17--  https://s3.amazonaws.com/aws-cli/awscli-bundle.zip
Resolving s3.amazonaws.com... 207.171.189.80
Connecting to s3.amazonaws.com|207.171.189.80|:443...

This remains forever.

I was able to download files until I created Group and user for AWS Console.

Please suggest what can be issues here.

You EC2 instances's Security groups is not configured to let it reach internet. You need to have an Outbound rule for all traffic to 0.0.0.0/0. In EC2-Classic, this is already in place and hence you need not worry. However, if this is in VPC, then you need to add this rule.

Also, Apart from what is said above, could you check whether any iptables rules causing any issue.

回答2:

Also make sure that if you want to download anything using wget using HTTPS link .Then add Outbound Rule for HTTPS ( Port 443 ) to 0.0.0.0/0

I figured out how to get apt-get to work again.

Edit gai.conf:

sudo vim /etc/gai.conf

change line ~54 to uncomment the following:

precedence ::ffff:0:0/96 100

write and quit:

:wq

CAUTION

Look out line 50 which looks almost identical:

precedence ::ffff:0:0/96 10

This is the wrong line. Go ~4 lines down and you'll find the correct line to uncomment because it ends with 100 instead of 10

adding outbound rule HTTP TCP 80 0.0.0.0/0 work for me.
