I created a course and set it's start/end date enrollments as shown also created some contents and published it
The course never show the enroll button to students even after i made a manual enrollment, the student lands to the "Page not found" page.
Every thing is shown to the admin and staff normally

Fresh install of ironwood master
Amazon aws

The page not found problem is likely due to an HTML error you have made while editing some of the HTML files.

As for the missing enroll button, I had this problem on ironwood.master too.

After investigation, I realised the enroll button was hidden by the box at the top of the course_about page

I solved this by editing the file courseware/course_about.html. Specifically, look at lines 114-116  and expand the box by including the style attribute "min-height" to the following classes "course-profile", intro-inner-wrapper" and "table". Expand the min-height to something like 20cm and then you should see the enroll button.

I'm aware of your point about the button, but in my problem the student see the link to the courses but when clicking on one the Page not found appear even after making the enrollment and start date available and with published content.

It's fixed. After completely stopping the aws instance and started it again, the student can enroll and see the about page. I think may be a service wasn't running well.
 I recommend after the fresh install complete do a new start to the aws instance.
Thanks
