    I have created a new VPS on AWS lightsail (2 GB RAM, 2 vCPUs, 60 GB SSD) 22.04 Ubuntu
    I have run the commands as mentioned individually with sudo
    wget https://cloudron.io/cloudron-setup
    chmod +x ./cloudron-setup
    ./cloudron-setup

    Nginx is running.
    I have opened all ports (temporarily)
    IP is 13.202.121.11

    Opening the same IP on https does not work for initial config

    running the below command
    tail -f /var/log/cloudron-setup.log

    says:

    # the nologin will also disable su/login. hardcoding uid helps in restoring
    if ! id yellowtent 2>/dev/null; then
        useradd --system --uid 808 --comment "Cloudron Box" --create-home --shell /usr/sbin/nol
    ogin yellowtent
    fi
    
    # add support user (no password, sudo)
    if ! id cloudron-support 2>/dev/null; then
        useradd --system --comment "Cloudron Support (support@cloudron.io)" --create-home --no-
    user-group --shell /bin/bash cloudron-support
    fi
    

    I have tried destroying the VPS and redoing only to get the same result.
    Please help.

      @vaibhav you mean the setup script just hangs? What does it show in the main terminal where you ran the setup script?

        I managed to fix it @girish.
        Applying the commands in the terminal did not work.
        I then asked AWS to apply these instructions while creating a new instance.

        Worked like a charm.
        But in hindsight, my original attempts should have worked. I dunno why it didn't.
