Hello all,

I'm trying out the rc3 and seeing a problem. If I deploy the "Template 3"
app (web server + Riak cluster) from the "New Application" window, then the
individual cluster nodes appear to start, but the cluster as a whole goes
on fire.

Drilling down, it appears to be a "join cluster" activity which is failing.
The stdout of the task says:
"Node [email protected] is not
reachable!"

This is running in AWS EC2 in eu-central-1 - everything is in the same
region.

Can anybody else reproduce?

Thanks
Richard.
