Hello! and Amazon EC2 Question

Hi Everyone,

I'm currently evaluating loadUI. I have a local project using a locally deployed agent, and it works great. I was trying to get the EC2 AMI working, and am having a terrible time with it. I created a free tier EC2 account, and started up an EC2 AMI, with the correct security rules (port 22, 80, and 443 open). Here's what I'm experiencing:

In the distributed view, I am able to add my EC2 AMI. It shows the "Distributing" animation for a really long time (5-10 minutes). It then shows my VU scenario name. I start the test, and it shows the "Distributing" animation again, and after 10 minutes, still has not fired off any requests. What am I doing wrong? Do the load agents also require an inbound port back to the controller to be open?

For the record: If I switch to Local, and re-run the test, it works fine. If I run the test with my two local agents (on the same network as the controller) it also works fine.

Regards,
Slashzero

    If you're evaluating LoadUI Pro, please ask your questions the way recommended in the e-mail that you got along with your trial license.

    Hi,

    I'm using loadUI, not loadUI Pro, which is why I posted in the community forums.
