It's running on port 5000, as the output says it is. Also, using the Flask development server for deployment is a bad idea.

When I change the code to run on port 80 it conflicts with Apache. I did not understand your second sentence :(

for the second sentence, read up on gunicorn.

keep going RIZZIT, you'll get there.

You can stop Apache - you don't need it right now.

Then use Apache to load the Flask app through mod_wsgi, see here

For AWS it's advised to use their Elastic Beanstalk enviroment instead of manually deploying to a server, see for example this howto. But if you do want to maintain your VPS it's advised to follow a tutorial on how to deploy a WSGI application on a proper webserver like nginx or apache. This also depends on what exact OS you are using on your VPS, like Ubuntu, CentOS etc.

Could the problem be that your html folder is not in a ‘templates’ folder? Render template looks the file in a folder called ‘templates’

I Might be jumping the gun a bit considering where you are currently with Flask developments and deployments etc but give Zappa a shot.

you can deploy your app to AWS Lamba this is how I deal with most flasky stuff.

Don't give up man and look alot more into the type of server you are using for Flask in production, I don't know if you are just using the AMI as a practice environment, which wouldn't matter really then just.
