I have performed the following steps:
-
Clicked on existing instance > Actions > Launch more like this
-
Kept all the settings the same aside from selecting a different instance type (same key name and security group)
-
I created an elastic IP and associated it with the new instance
Now when I run Terminal and do an ssh -I MyLamp.pem root@1.23.45.67
I get the following error:
connect to host 1.23.45.67 port 22: Operation timed out.
I have checked the security group and can confirm it is not a permission issue there as I have 22 open (22 TCP 0.0.0.0/0 ✔), just like on my other instance which I can SSH into without a problem.
I have no idea what to try next to fix this so I can SSH in.
