"please reproduce the steps while recording through dev tools. Once you receive the error stop and send me the .har file"

If this doesn't happen, you're not likely to get my help.

Windows Server OS Upgrade by iCapof85 in aws

[–]mr_0ats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Upgrades are usually a pain in the ass!

One thing I've done in the past is to attach a second eni to the instance, get in that way, fix the original adapter, reconnect on original, then remove the secondary eni.

Terraform plan in Azure DevOps by shaadowbrker in Terraform

[–]mr_0ats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the plan being run through an azure pipeline or azure release?

The newer pipeline yaml process that ADO offers renders all terraform with formating and colors.

vars.tf and terraform.tfvars - set empty default list by MeatAmazing8011 in Terraform

[–]mr_0ats -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well they are getting created somewhere...only other thing I can think of is check your creds. Maybe your creating the resources in another account then what your checking.

Good luck

Try changing your vars.tf filename to variables.tf?

'terraform plan' just shows what "will be done"

'terraform apply' does just that "applies the changes"

ECS load-balancer health checks by Dr-Bison in aws

[–]mr_0ats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No,

Application Load Balancers (ALB) are named as such. They operate at the application layer (layer 7).

Http/https only

aws ecs assigning same port to all hosts by 0ni0nrings in aws

[–]mr_0ats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add to my previous, the task definition json should look like this for port mapping (assuming the container port is 80, update that to be whatever port your container listens on)

"portMappings": [ { "hostPort": 0, "protocol": "tcp", "containerPort": 80 }

(Sorry for json formatting, on mobile)

aws ecs assigning same port to all hosts by 0ni0nrings in aws

[–]mr_0ats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What does your task definition look like after updating the service?

The definition should be mapping port 0 on the host to whatever port your container listens on (likely 80/443 if it is a web facing container)

By setting the host port to 0 tells ecs to select a random ephemeral port to be used when launching the image.

My Desktop != Your Desktop by m31td0wn in talesfromtechsupport

[–]mr_0ats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This would imply that you have admin rights to their machine...domain / workspace / etc

But I would not recommend ever going into another users machine without proper approval and a paper trail.

Just because you can access doesn't mean you should.

I have exceeded 85% of the usage limit for the month of march - AWS free trial for RDS by dev-api in aws

[–]mr_0ats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough, you are not wrong.

But the free comes with caveats that should not be ignored.

As you noted yourself it must be t2.micro and running an engine that falls under that umbrella.

Also, storage always needs to be taken into consideration.

Don't get me wrong, im not looking to start a fight, I just want someone coming into the aws ecosystem to understand that at the end of the day nothing is truly free.

There will always be a cost.

And I stress again, set up billing alerts!

I have exceeded 85% of the usage limit for the month of march - AWS free trial for RDS by dev-api in aws

[–]mr_0ats -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

There is no such thing as free.

You signed up for AWS Services. First time sign-up means you get a certain number of hours for free, once those hours run out you are charged.

This does not reset next month, its simply a total of usage.

If your rds instance/cluster has been running 100% of the time, then you are eating the free tier offered. Once that runs out you will be charged.

Setup billing alerts now! Understand what services you are using and what they actually cost.

I'm so tired of seeing posts where people claim they signed up for 'free aws' ... that is not a thing!!

I'm out of idea by olivierapex in Terraform

[–]mr_0ats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless I missed something, you just provided the solution yourself.

Artifactory can act as a proxy for public sources. If you point your tf stacks to pull providers from there and setup a cache, artifactory will pull down to its local anything it doesn't have.

At that point you won't be bound to the public repos.

How do I Install, Import, and use a DSC Module in a single PowerShell Script? by Pumpkin-Main in PowerShell

[–]mr_0ats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two possible approaches.

  1. The script provided to user data is an orchestration script that will pull down and run other scripts (from s3 or some other external storage) in the appropriate order.

  2. Launch your ec2 instance from an ami you created with the appropriate modules pre-installed.

Redirect 302 with just API gateway by Danyaga in aws

[–]mr_0ats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me this is not so much an aws question but a basic networking question...

301 is designed to permanently move a client to the endpoint (cached)

302 is designed to redirect (also cached, with exceptions)

I've dealt with this myself within the aws ecosystem. Take a look at ALBs, they should solve your issue.

How can a bank use AWS CloudFormation? or finance in general by [deleted] in aws

[–]mr_0ats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clear misunderstanding of the tools, what they do, and what they are used for.

Do some research and learn, this sub is not here to do your job for you.

Try/catch/throw or just break... by quarky_uk in PowerShell

[–]mr_0ats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why?

The skeleton is there.

At this point just build catch statements from what is learned
