Until the initialization process finishes, the Status Checks column of the EC2 Management Console will display Initializing and an hourglass icon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">When you launch an instance, it is assigned a hostname that is a form of the private, internal IPv4 address.\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The hostname is set from the AWS Console, and if you don\u2019t set it correctly when the instance is first built, you cannot change it within cPanel\/WHM<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0Well you can, but it is a multistep process, so you are better off setting your hostname while the instance is initializing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In case you forget, you can find how to change your hostname\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"_e75a791d-denali-editor-page-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/docs.aws.amazon.com\/AWSEC2\/latest\/UserGuide\/set-hostname.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">here.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Additionally, you will want to associate your instance with an elastic IP so you can be sure your IP address doesn\u2019t change in the future when stopping or restarting your instance. The documentation on AWS\u2019s elastic IPs is found\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"_e75a791d-denali-editor-page-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/docs.aws.amazon.com\/AWSEC2\/latest\/UserGuide\/elastic-ip-addresses-eip.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">here.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">You can view your instances on the EC2 Console, which is hyperlinked on the notification page or view all your instances in \u201cYour Software.\u201d It will take you to a page that looks like this:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.cpanel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/9.png\" alt=\"Screenshot of all instances in the AWS while installing cPanel\" width=\"720\" height=\"360\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Before you login to WHM for the first time, you will need to set the root password for the server since the AWS AMI does not automatically assign you one. To do this, log in via SSH as the centos user using the key you downloaded earlier from setting up key pairs. Establish an SSH connection to the server by using the following syntax: ssh root@IPaddress. Once you\u2019re in, run \u201csudo su -\u201d to become root, and then \u201cpasswd\u201d to set the password. You\u2019ll be asked to type the password twice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Ok now grab your IP address so we can log in to WHM or cPanel for the first time. There are two ways to login, but the easiest way to get started is to use your server\u2019s IP address and port 2087 for WHM and port 2083 for cPanel. That login would look like this:\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"_e75a791d-denali-editor-page-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/127.0.0.1:2087\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">https:\/\/127.0.0.1:2087<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. Replace that 127.0.0.1 in the address with the IP of your server. Please note, you will need to accept the SSL warning the first time you log in.
