I cannot SSH into my instance - Operation timed out. What could be the reasons why, and what can I do to resolve it? Rebooting normally takes a long time to take effect, and might just makes things worst
UPDATE: It is not about permissions - i can log in normally just fine. I suspect it might be because of memory issues
I had the same problem, and the solution ended up being adding my
local machine's IP to the list of inbound rules in the active security
group. In the inbound dialog below, enter 22 in the port range, your local IP/32 in the source field, and leave 'custom tcp rule' in the dropdown.
Did you set an appropriate security group for the instance? I.e. one that allows access from your network to port 22 on the instance. (By default all traffic is disallowed.)
Update: Ok, not a security group issue. But does the problem persist if you launch up another instance from the same AMI and try to access that? Maybe this particular EC2 instance just randomly failed somehow – it is only matter of time that something like that happens. (Recommended reading: Architecting for the Cloud: Best Practices (PDF), a paper by Jinesh Varia who is a web services evangelist at Amazon. See especially the section titled "Design for failure and nothing will fail".)
Destroy and create anew
I had one availability zone where I could connect and another where I could not. After a few hours I got so frustrated that I deleted everything in that availability zone.
Building everything back I had to make sure to create EVERYTHING. This included:
Create VPC
CIDR: 10.0.0.0/24
Create Internet Gateway
Attach Internet Gateway to VPC
Create Routing Table
Add Route to Routing Table
Destination: 0.0.0.0/0
Target: <Internet Gateway from earlier>
Create Subnet
CIDR: 10.0.0.0/24
Routing Table: <Routing Table from earlier
It took me a LOT of fumbling to get all of this. I've ordered the steps in the way I think might be most efficient, but you may have to adjust them to get one item available for the next.
Suggestion
I'm not suggesting that you go thermo nuclear as I did. I'm offering all this information so that you can check these associations to ensure yours are appropriate.
This answer is for the silly folks (like me). Your EC2's public DNS might (will) change when it's restarted. If you don't realize this and attempt to SSH into your old public DNS, the connection will stall and time out. This may lead you to assume something is wrong with your EC2 or security group or... Nope, just SSH into the new DNS. And update your ~/.ssh/config file if you have to!
To connect use ssh like so:
ssh -i keyname.pem username#xxx.xx.xxx.xx
Where keyname.pem is the name of your private key, username is the correct username for your os distribution, and xxx.xx.xxx.xx is the public ip address.
When it times out or fails, check the following:
Security Group
Make sure to have an inbound rule for tcp port 22 and either all ips or your ip. You can find the security group through the ec2 menu, in the instance options.
Routing Table
For a new subnet in a vpc, you need to change to a routing table that points 0.0.0.0/0 to internet gateway target. When you create the subnet in your vpc, by default it assigns the default routing table, which probably does not accept incoming traffic from the internet. You can edit the routing table options in the vpc menu and then subnets.
Elastic IP
For an instance in a vpc, you need to assign a public elastic ip address, and associate it with the instance. The private ip address can't be accessed from the outside. You can get an elastic ip in the ec2 menu (not instance menu).
Username
Make sure you're using the correct username. It should be one of ec2-user or root or ubuntu. Try them all if necessary.
Private Key
Make sure you're using the correct private key (the one you download or choose when launching the instance). Seems obvious, but copy paste got me twice.
Have you looked at the console output from the instance ? You can do this via the AWS console (Instances -> Right-click on the instance -> Get System Log). I've had occasions where the network services on an EC2 instance failed to start correctly, resulting in timed out SSH connections; restarting the instance usually fixed things.
AFTER 2 HOURS I FOUND THIS
Note That ssh ip 120.138.105.251/32
IS NOT aws instance IP ADDRESS
It Is not your local ip 127.0.0.1
It Is not your local ip localhost
BUT BUT BUT
Its Your public ip address of your personal Computer from which you trying to access aws instance
Go to https://www.whatismyip.com/ whatever ip address put in ssh
IF YOU WANT TO FULLY OPEN SSH TO ALL IP ADDRESS
THIS IS HOW FULLY ACCESSIBLE ENTRIES LOOK - BASIC RECOMEENDED
THIS IS WHAT I AM USING IN PRODUCTION
The following are possible issues:
The most likely one is that the Security Group is not configured properly to provide SSH access on port 22 to your i.p. Change in security setting does not require a restart of server for it to be effective but need to wait a few minutes for it to be applicable.
The local firewall configuration does not allow SSH access to the server. ( you can try a different internet connection, your phone/dongle to try it)
The server is not started properly ( then the access checks will fail even on the amazon console), in which case you would need to stop and start the server.
Allow ssh and port 22 from ufw, then enable it and check with status command
sudo ufw allow ssh
sudo ufw allow 22
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw status
Check out this help page on AWS docs:
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/TroubleshootingInstancesConnecting.html#TroubleshootingInstancesConnectionTimeout
You will probably find your solution there. for me this part did the fix:
[EC2-VPC] Check the route table for the subnet. You need a route that
sends all traffic destined outside the VPC to the Internet gateway for
the VPC.
Open the Amazon VPC console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/vpc/.
In the navigation pane, choose Internet Gateways. Verify that there is an Internet gateway attached to your VPC. Otherwise, choose Create
Internet Gateway and follow the directions to create an Internet
gateway, select the Internet gateway, and then choose Attach to VPC
and follow the directions to attach it to your VPC.
In the navigation pane, choose Subnets, and then select your subnet.
On the Route Table tab, verify that there is a route with 0.0.0.0/0 as the destination and the Internet gateway for your VPC as the
target. Otherwise, choose the ID of the route table (rtb-xxxxxxxx) to
navigate to the Routes tab for the route table, choose Edit, Add
another route, enter 0.0.0.0/0 in Destination, select your Internet
gateway from Target, and then choose Save.
But I suggest you check out all the options the link above covers , you may find there the one or more issues that you got.
My issue - I had port 22 open for "My IP" and changed the internet connection and IP address change caused. So had to change it back.
Building off #ted.strauss's answer, you can select SSH and MyIP from the drop down menu instead of navigating to a third party site.
Just reboot the Ec2 Instance once you applied Rules
I was working on the instance and it was fine, the very next day when I tried to SSH into my instance it said - Connection timeout.
I tried to go through this post but nothing worked. So I did -
On the Edit inbound rules from source column choose MY IP and it will automatically populate your Public IP address in CIDR format (XXX.XXX.XXX.XX/32).
I tried with the #ted.strauss answer by giving local IP but it did not help in my case. So I choose MY IP and it worked.
Hope this helps someone!
In my case, Instance was reachable but suddenly it became unreachable.
I just rebooted the instance from aws console & it solved my problem.
If you still have this problem today and non of the other solutions have been helpful, what worked for me was; go to security groups, select a security group or create one, then click to add new inbound rule, click the source drop down and select "from anywhere" this will set 0.0.0.0/0 as the source ip.
You should be fine now.
Ensure you already have the private key file on your machine.
you can watch this video if you need more clarity.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UqtMcX_kg0
One more possibility. AWS security groups are setup to work only with specific incoming ip addresses. If your security group is setup in this way you (or the account holder) will need to add your ip address to the security group. Todo this open your AWS dashboard, select security groups, select a security group and click on the inbound tab. Then add your ip as appropriate.
I had the same problem, and the solution was allowing access from anywhere to the list of inbound rules in the active security group. In the inbound dialog, enter 22 in the port range, anywhere in the source field, and select 'ssh' in the dropdown.
P.S : This might not be the recommended solution as it means this instance can be ssh'ed from any machine, but I could not get it to work with my local IP.
I had similar problem, when I was using public Wifi, which didn't have password. Switching the internet connection to a secure connection did solve the problem.
If SSH access doesn't work for your EC2 instance, you need to check:
Security Group for your instance is allowing Inbound SSH access (check: view rules).
If you're using VPC instance (you've VPC ID and Subnet ID attached to your instance), check:
In VPC Dashboard, find used Subnet ID which is attached to your VPC.
Check its attached Route table which should have 0.0.0.0/0 as Destination and your Internet Gateway as Target.
On Linux, you may also check route info in System Log in Networking of the instance, e.g.:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Net device info+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+--------+------+------------------------------+---------------+-------+-------------------+
| Device | Up | Address | Mask | Scope | Hw-Address |
+--------+------+------------------------------+---------------+-------+-------------------+

+--------+------+------------------------------+---------------+-------+-------------------+
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Route IPv4 info+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+-------+-------------+------------+---------------+-----------+-------+
| Route | Destination | Gateway | Genmask | Interface | Flags |

+-------+-------------+------------+---------------+-----------+-------+
where UG flags showing you your internet gateway.
For more details, check: Troubleshooting Connecting to Your Instance at Amazon docs.
To enable ssh access from the Internet for instances in a VPC subnet do the following:
Attach an Internet gateway to your VPC.
Ensure that your subnet's route table points to the Internet gateway.
Ensure that instances in your subnet have a globally unique IP address (public IPv4 address, Elastic IP address, or IPv6 address).
Ensure that your network access control (at VPC Level) and security group rules (at ec2 level) allow the relevant traffic to flow to and from your instance. Ensure your network Public IP address is enabled for both. By default, Network AcL allow all inbound and outbound traffic except explicitly configured otherwise
For me it was the apache server hosted on a t2.micro linux EC2 instance, not the EC2 instance itself.
I fixed it by doing:
sudo su
service httpd restart
I had the same problem and I solved it by adding a rule to the security Groups
Inbound SSH 0.0.0.0/0
Or you can add your IP address only
For me, it was that I had deleted everything from the boot volume. And couldn't connect to the instance anymore.
ping the DNS first . If fails then configure your inbound/outbound rules in the launch wizard . configure ALL traffic and ALL protocol and just save with default options . Ping again with your local system and then should work
If you've just created a new instance and can't connect to it, I was able to solve the issue by terminating that one and creating a new one. Of course this will only work if it's a new instance and you haven't done any more work on it.
There could be multiple reasons for connection getting timed-out during ssh. One of the cases where i have seen this is when your route and subnet does not have associations.
If you're trying to connect from another EC2 instance, you have to make sure to only use the PRIVATE IPv4 addresses to reference them or the connections will not work.
This will be one of the reason. when you enable ufw and reboot your instance. First you have to add 22/tcp before enabling ufw. Following is the command
$ ufw allow 22/tcp
If you already made the mistake. Then follow the following guide
Start a recovery instance.
Stop the blocked instance (DON'T TERMINATE)
Detach the blocked instance volume.
Attach Blocked volume to the recovery instance.
Log to the recovery instance(Newly Launched) via ssh/putty
Type sudo lsblk to display attached volumes
Verify the name of the Blocked volume. Generally start with /dev/xvdf.
Mount blocked volume.
$ sudo mount /dev/xvdf1 /mnt
$ cd /mnt/etc/ufw
Open ufw configuration file
$ sudo vi ufw.conf
Enable insert mode by pressing i in vi editor
Update ENABLED=yes to ENABLED=no
ClickESC and type :wq to update the file.
Verify the file contents. where update to ENABLED=yes -> ENABLED=no
$ sudo cat ufw.conf
Remove the mounted blocked volume from recovery instance
$ cd ~
$ sudo umount /mnt
Now detach blocked install volume from recovery instance and re-attach it to the original instance as /dev/sda1.
Finally, Start the blocked instance. Here's you will able to access your instance. If you enable ufw again don't forget to allow 22/tcp.
sudo ufw allow ssh //this one are to be added
sudo ufw allow 22 // this one
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw status
The solution with me was different than all the above solutions. I forgot the my VPN on. When I turned it off the problem is solved.

I need to access company's internal network without using their OPENVPN server directly (My ISP blocks it). So I used an instance with a public IP, where my company is located, and have configured a OPENVPN client then used it to connect to the company's OPENVPN server.
(public IP instance) ===OPENVPN===> (Company)
Now, I need to achieve a further thing, which is working from my local machine by using VPN over SSH tunnel using sshuttle, such that the topology becomes:
(local) ===SSHUTTLE===> (public IP instance) ===OPENVPN===> (Company)
Note that public IP instance has two network adapters; eth0 (it has public IP) and tun0 (which belongs to OPENVPN)
I installed sshuttle, and tested the next command:
sshuttle --dns -r <user>#<public IP instance address> 0.0.0.0/0
It says connected after then but I still cant access anything. I tested dig and it returned results showing addresses of company's internal services. However, I still can't ping them. I tested using traceroute and it stops at some point after displaying some hops.
One important point is that I can't ping the tun0 address (on public ip instance) from my local machine.
I suspect that I need to add some routes on the intermediate public IP instance, but I am not sure.
I would appreciate any help
Thanks in advance
your setup is right but your assumptions are wrong.
Initially, check that your vpn is working fine on the jump box , if linux just check
route -n
Wrong assumptions:
sshuttle will route your dig commands , sshutle only route TCP and DNS queries are UDP
using --dns in your sshuttle meanless as you wont gain dns of vpn but of the jump box and that wont work
you should add the DNS of local vpn in your /etc/resolv.conf with target domain for local discovery
like : < call tech support to provide you with right DNS , you can find it in vpn log on jump box
search companydomain.internal
nameserver 10.x.y.z
its better to split the traffic and only target your company CIDR over sshuttle , most of them use parts of 10.0.0.0/8 instead of all traffic 0.0.0.0/0
important note: that may be your company block egress traffic to the internet over VPN access
I've installed ansible on my master vm, created and copied my key to my worker vm, but I'm unable to establish connection with the worker vm. When I try, I don't get any error message; it just stalls. I'm using ubuntu 18 on gcp.

There is no firewall rule that allows ingress on 22 on your target instance.
I just reproduced. This will do the job:
Step 1:
Add a network tag on your VMs (allow-ssh in my example)
Step 2:
Go to VPC-FirewallRules and create a firewall rule that allows Ingress traffic incoming from instances that have the allow-ssh tag targeting other instances that have the same tag assigned, on tcp 22
Of course this will allow ssh both ways, but I suppose this is not a problem. If you need it one way only, add a comment.
For SSH Database connection, Please check following solution:
Create SSH DB general connection and call it from some other file
Just a bit of background first.
I have installed coturn server in my local machine (Behind a firewall and with local IP).
I have created a port forwarding for cotrun server lets say my local ip is: 192.168.0.11:3478 is mapped with my public ip 10.1.10.212:3478.
When I use some online utility to check my public IP has this port open it? that utility shows that it is open.
I am trying to test this server using this fiddle: Code to test TURN server
I removed the stun configuration from it, and added my live ip and port. And when I try to test it, it says your TURN server is broken in console on web browser. And I see failed as output.
I have also used following commands to create a user from this link.
Wiki to Coturn Configuration
// created test user
sudo turnadmin -a -u test -r test -p test
// enabling admin support in web (not sure how to access it in browser)
sudo turnadmin -A -u test -p test
I start the turn server using following command:
turnserver -L 192.168.0.11 -a -f -v -X -r test
I have enabled the "TURNSERVER_ENABLED"
/etc/default/coturn
TURNSERVER_ENABLED=1
Screenshot of my about:webrtc:
Please find the below attached Screen shot for my about:webrtc. I am not sure what is missing.
EDIT-1
I can also see the incoming packet message processed, error 401: Unauthorized in the console of TURN server
EDIT-2
I resolved the TURN server related issue, added the turn server in client code as well, still facing issue, call is not going through,
Update
Here is what I found, the reason why it wasn't working earlier was due to a defective router in the network. This thing has harassed me for almost a month (however the internet used to work fine). But I found that there is a loss of packets and I switch to LAN cable I even avoided the firewall of the organization and there it was working just fine. Then I configured the rules in firewall and it started working as well.
A few issues that might be causing this:
The -X option requires an argument - the external IP if the TURN server is behind a NAT.
If you are setting all your parameters on the command line, you should include -n to ensure that it does not load an unrelated configuration file.
TURNSERVER_ENABLED=1 is to start turnserver with default configuration at system boot. You do not want this if you are starting turnserver manually from the command line.
https://github.com/coturn/coturn/blob/master/README.turnserver
" I have created a port forwarding for CoTurn server lets say my local ip is: 192.168.0.11:3478 is mapped with my public ip 10.1.10.212:3478."
Now surely you are aware that the private address-spaces in IPV4 are (private IP ranges):
10.0.0.0 – 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 – 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.255
So, your first IP is in the last private IP range, and your so-called "public IP" is in the first private IP-range. Now you need to find your TRUE REAL public-IP address to try to connect to it from outside. I would say that it looks like your ISP has you behind a NAT. So your TURN server might be behind two NATs. Which is kind of ironic situation for a server designed to help penetrate NATs of webRTC-clients. You might want to try to put CoTurn somewhere where it is possible for it to work like AWS (special case of CoTurn friendly NAT).
Just recently got (well with lots of help -- that even did the most of the work) CoTurn to work in cloud and on local Ubuntu ;-) (never stopped me from bragging though). Though there is troubling few srflx-call-successes yet (mostly local network or relay(TURN) calls). :-D
log:Creating Server TCP listening socket （myip:port）: bind: Cannot assign requested address
my redis.conf
bind 10.114.234.11
when i cofig like this
bind 127.0.0.1
it works well
You likely do not currently have any interfaces set up for the 10.x.x.x subnet. If you're on any flavor of Linux, ifconfig should be able to tell you which interfaces are currently set up. For example, I'm running Mint 17:
$ ifconfig | grep "inet addr"
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
inet addr:192.168.1.3 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
So I (like you) would not be able to bind Redis (or most any other service requesting a TCP socket) to 10.x.x.x. If you are really trying to listen for connections on that subnet, you will need to change your network setup (how exactly that would be done depends largely on your operating system).
I also faced same issue while setting up redis for remote access. I was using google cloud platform and we created Google compute engine VM instance where we installed our Redis server. Redis doesn't ship with by default with security configured. You have to perform some steps to secure it. By updating IP address in redis.conf in bind will allow access only from that IP addresses. When we were doing it, we were getting same error.
To solve this issue we haven't added IP addresses in redis.conf file instead in Google cloud firewall rules when we add port open record in network -> IP ranges you can specify IP address which you want allow to access redis. In redis.conf file update from bind 127.0.0.1 to bind 0.0.0.0. So basically we will restrict it from Google cloud firewall rules dashboard.
Below are steps to add IP address restrictions:
Login to your google cloud console
Navigate to VPC Network -> Firewall Rules
Click on CREATE FIREWALL RULE or edit existing one if it's already there
In Source IP ranges add your IP address to allow access only - See below screenshot
Once you create this rule add this source tags under your VM instances network type and you are done.
I have faced the same issue when I changed the default redis.conf to custom Redis conf and after changing the bind as below then it started working, Please be aware that the below conf will open the Redis connection from all sources.
bind 127.0.0.1 -::1 to bind 0.0.0.0 -::1
At /etc/redis/redis.conf
Please change
bind 127.0.0.1 ::1
to
bind 0.0.0.0
then restart
/etc/init.d/redis-server restart
It's work to me
I can't access to AWS EC2 instance from one day.
(AMI: ubuntu/images/ebs/ubuntu-precise-12.04-amd64-server-20121001 (ami-22ad1223))
$ ssh -v -i mykey.pem ubuntu#XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
OpenSSH_5.9p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8x 10 May 2012
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config

debug1: connect to address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port 22: Operation timed out
ssh: connect to host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port 22: Operation timed out
This is my "Security Groups" setting in EC2.
I did not change the setting from the time had a good connection.
Ports Protocol Source
22 tcp 0.0.0.0/0
80 tcp 0.0.0.0/0
3000 tcp 0.0.0.0/0
3006 tcp 0.0.0.0/0
I've tried many times to restart the server.
Web server is going well. However SSH connection is not.
What could be problem and how to make it work?
My usual checklist:
On AWS console: is the Instance up and healthy?
Is it in a public Subnet?
Does it have a public ip?
Does the VPC have an associated Internet Gateway?
Does it have the Routing Table to the Internet Gateway? (Attached to the subnet?)
Are the Network ACL rules default?
Does the Security group allow ping? If yes, does the ping work?
Does the Security group allow SSH inbound?
If there is still no clue, then fire up a new instance (from a base AMI) in the same VPC. Connect to it via SSH. If it was successful, try to ssh from that instance.
I too faced the same issue. Actually, by mistake, I deleted the default Internet Gateway.
Go to VPC and click "Internet Gateways" from the left menu.
Click "Create internet gateway" button and provide Name tag (any name - optional) and click create.
By default, it is detached. So click the Actions drop-down and select "Attach to VPC" and attach it with default VPC
Now go to "Route Table" and select default route table and edit the route by clicking "Edit routes" button under Routes tab
Then in the Destination text box provide "0.0.0.0/0" and in target select the newly created Internet gateway (starts with igw-alphanumeric) and save the route.
Now you should be able to SSH EC2 instance.
For newbies to AWS, like me, remember the hostname can change if you reboot or stop/start your instances. So remember to use the right hostname - visible in the description of your instance each time you ssh.
If this happens "from one day", the IP your AWS EC2 instance associated with may be blocked from this day.
If the IP is blocked, you need to add a new dynamic IP and associate this new dynamic IP with your AWS EC2 instance.
Steps:
1.Go to "Elastic IPs".
2.Allocate new address.
3.Choose this new address. Click "Actions" and "Associate address".
4.Select your instance and Click "Associate".
In my case, adding new dynamic IP to my AWS EC2 instance fix the problem.(My problem was I can't access to AWS EC2 instance from one day too)
Kindly create a new security group and select type SSH
SSH
TCP
22
0.0.0.0/0
In addition to Adam's answer, also check if your public subnet's RT table is using the IGW and the private Subnets' RT has 0.0.0.0/0 -> NAT instance Id.
Check that you are connecting to the public dynamic IP or associate an ElasticIP and connect to it.
I was using public wifi in the library and that was not letting me connect, which I came to know when I switched to my mobile hotspot wifi (password protected). Try switching to a protected network.
Even I also faced this same problem, good to know i have not allowed from route table.
Check EC2 Instance associated
And try these steps
subnet,Route table and allowed CIDR blocks
key pair associated with EC2 Instance
security group ssh port 22 allowed or not.
If you are accessing from a new machine, then make sure the IP of the machine you are accessing from is included in the inbound rules. If not add a rule
SSH | TCP | Port:22 | Source: MY IP
For me, I had to delete all my rules for the security group for the particular instance and create new rules for the same ssh, http and https
For some reason after stopping the instance and starting it later, my IP changed... probably because I switched my wifi connectivity device.
But putting new rules with the new IP address worked! You can check the ip by googling "myip"
Well, if this happened all of a sudden, try disconnecting and connecting back to your VPN (if accessing through a VPN). It might work!
I was able to fixed it simply by following this instruction
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/get-set-up-for-amazon-ec2.html
It sets up your private key pair as well as security group. The issue I think mainly because the default security group doesn't has a ssh inbound for your local IP setup.
If none of the troubleshooting steps above work for you, make sure that your EC2 container meets all system requirements for the application(s) you're running on the container. SSH will sometimes not be able to start if the memory runs out before getting to the SSH service.
Example: I was perfectly able to SSH into my EC2 container when I first launched it. I then proceeded to install Mailcow. My issue with SSH arose after restarting my container because the application I had installed required heavy services -- Docker, for example. After reading the system requirements from Mailcow, I realized a t2.micro wasn't even close to what I needed to run everything. I changed to a t3.large, and all worked perfectly.
Even after doing this for awhile, you can sometimes forget the most basic steps and requirements.
Try stopping the ec2 instance and then restarting. It worked for me!
