Retry the installation by using t2.medium instance. The aws playground authorize you to use nano, micro, small and medium size only

Thank hope my response will help you

Hi,
the IP address 172.31.28.126 is the private IP address try to use the link or public IP address
Also, be sure to authorize port 80 on Security Group

On the screenshot behind I authorize all TCP ports but on production you need define port policy filter

Also be sure to use HTTP instead of https

Hi @t.sreenivasulu
Sorry for the late response, I hope it works on Amazon Linux :pray: Just remember to update the Security group by default only SSH port 80 is authorized, and use the external link.

Thank
