I have been trying for the past week and a half to figure out how to get Zenoss Core 5 to run successfully on m4.2xlarge AWS EC2 server. The server is created with a root directory of 40GB along with 4 additional hard drives of 40GB if I am doing the auto-deploy script or 2 80GB hard drives if I am doing the manual installation. Each time I can get to the Control Center and I can start Zenoss Core 5 from the Control Center but I can not access Zenoss Core itself.

My /etc/hosts file looks like this:

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
172.31.52.63 ip-172-31-52-63.ec2.internal
52.2.119.157 ip-172-31-52-63.ec2.internal hbase.ip-172-31-52-63.ec2.internal opentsdb.ip-172-31-52-63.ec2.internal .....

I am fairly certain I have followed all the instructions correctly but I still can not access Zenoss Core itself. Is it possible to access Zenoss Core even though I have installed Zenoss on an AWS EC2 server I really hope someone can help!

"My /etc/hosts" - pls define machine location of "your /etc/hosts".

That file is defined on the EC2 instance.

Nope. Edit hosts file on your local/personal computer (PC, laptop, ....), not on the server (EC2 instance).
