Hi

I registered for a free tier EC2 instance (t2.micro) on Amazon withUbuntu 14.04 AMD64 http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/

I have set it up according to the DHIS2 implementation manual.

I'm aware that this low hardware specifications are not ready fornational use, I'd like to use it as prototyping resource. However, theserver responds to pings but is not accessible through the browser. Isuspect the memory configuration. Please find the relevantconfigurations / error messages in red below.


*Hardware:*
RAM: 1GB memory
CPU: 1 CPU, spike balancing (t2.micro tier from amazon)
Disk: 20GB

Basically, I just divided the RAM specs from the implementation manual(2x 8GB) for each attribute by 16 (I have 1GB).
