    Dear,



    I try to
    install superdesk in demo mode on AWS, I have used a t2.medium.  I have follow the installation instruction on
    the superdesk website.  I have configured
    a virtual host in apache  as proxy to
    localhost:8080.  I have run
    ./scripts/docker-local-create-user.sh , I start superdesk using ./scripts/docker
    -local-demo.sh.  When I start a web browser
    on my workstation, I have the login page, I try to login, I receive the
    following error : Sorry, but can't reach the server now. Please try again later.



    If I start
    the development tools in the browser (F12) I see the following error in the
    console : app.bundle.js:585 WebSocket connection to 'ws://localhost:8080/ws'
    failed: Error in connection establishment: net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSEDc @
    app.bundle.js:585    app.bundle.js:585
    Eventa.onerror @ app.bundle.js:5852



    http://localhost:8080/api
    Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED



    My browser
    try to open websocket on localhost… What could be the problem ?



    Thanks for
    your help

    hello,

    the issue is that this local demo is configured to run on localhost, while your amazon url will be different.

    you can try https://github.com/superdesk/install-scripts for amazon, that should work better.

    Petr,
    It works, thank a lot.
    Is it possible to populate it with the demo data as in the demo version ?

    you can try this:
    cd /opt/superdesk
    . env/bin/activate
    honcho run python3 manage.py app:initialize_data --sample-data -f
