I downloaded the .bin file, chmod 755, executed it successfully and everything seems to have gone ok.

I am doing this on Amazon EC2.

However, using the Amazon EC2 IP address or DNS address of my EC2 server containing Opina I cannot connect using my web browser as it just tells me Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server.

I then tried
ctlscript.sh restart

and everything seems to start OK

I installed this on an EC2 Ubuntu ‘server’ so I can’t really try ‘from’ that server to connect with a browser to 127.0.0.1:8080/opina—unless I want to go through adding additional software.

If either Bitnami or Opina’s developers have an idea what is going wrong let me know.

It is probably that the Ubuntu machine in Amazon does not have open the 8080 port, only the 80 port. If this is the problem you can install Opina using 80 port. As root user (because if not you can not bind ports lower than 1024) try the following:


# ./bitnami-opina-(version)-linux-installer.bin --tomcat_server_port 80

I hope it helps.

that was it… thanks

Now … I guess I should have looked at the screenshots of opina before trying all of this…. does anyone know if there is an English version?
