Not able to access Image Magickly from my ubuntu server which is on Amazon instance

Hi,

  I tried to install Image Magically on ubuntu which is on Amazon instance.

I followed the following reference link for that.

There I followed the following steps to install Image Magically on server.

   $ gem install magickly

  After that I installed the “thin” gem using under given command.   $ gem install thin

  Then I tried to start “thin” gem with following command. $ thin start

  When I start “thin” using command “thin start”, it gets started in terminal and shows message

“Using rack adapter Thin web server (v1.6.1 codename Death Proof) Maximum connections set to 1024 Listening on 0.0.0.0:3000, CTRL+C to stop”

So according to message, I tried to access app at http://0.0.0.0:3000, but can’t access it.

What changes should I do if I want to access this app on Amazon Instance Domain? Because currently I have installed this app on Amazon Instance.

Please help me.

Thanks.

So according to message, I tried to access app at http://0.0.0.0:3000,

but can’t access it.

0.0.0.0 is not a real ip address: it is is shorthand for ‘any ip address on any network interface that this machine might have’ (for example your amazon instance probably has an internal and an external ipaddress).

In addition if you are testing this on a machine other than the instance in question you will need to configure its security group to allow traffic on port 3000.
