Hello,

I just installed the AMI through Amazon EC2 using my S3 storage,
launched the instance and went through the setup process and cannot
login to the site or do anything. Seems to be looking for
login.persona.org

Please advise.

Thanks,
Anthony

Thanks for the quick response.

I re-started the instance this morning and went through the setup
again. The site was not refreshing constantly like yesterday and I was
able to complete the setup. It also prompted me to download Firefox
since I was using Chrome. I setup a Persona / Browser ID and was able
to login successfully.

Separate question, are there any specifics I should be aware of
regarding the S3 bucket? After the restart this morning, the instance
name changed, however I still had the bucket name which was created
yesterday during setup in S3. During the setup I just pointed
openphoto to the old bucket name.

You can reuse buckets. Every instance of a site is bound to the hostname. So you'll probably see a config file under `src/userdata/configs` for each of the two host names you've seen with your instance. Ideally you can CNAME or something to keep the name from changing. If the name does change you can simply symlink the config file to a new file with the host name replacing the old host name in the file name.

That last sentence sucked...
