i haven't myself, but I've used AWS EC2 a fair bit Trevor's new 2.2 binaries for linux should make this pretty easy.
Just remember, EC2 ain't exactly pumping powerful machines I'd try using linode instead, they offer quad core zen instances as default and they start our very cheap and there I/O performance is much better than EC2 RAM 512MB 768MB 1024MB 1536MB 2048MB 4096MB Storage 16GB 24GB 32GB 48GB 64GB 128GB Transfer 200GB 300GB 400GB 600GB 800GB 1600GB Price $19.95 $29.95 $39.95 $59.95 $79.95 $159.95 http://www.linode.com/?r=0c3fc1f1868930edc1dcbd3cff855419a3ddc313 (disclaimer, that's my referral link) and linode has a very nice dashboard for perf monitoring your instances, something EC2 really lacks the free ec2 instances are not really suitable for IMHO for mapguide, to small, think of it like this, whats your hourly rate? no point saving a few $$ on a solution which won't work which takes hours to setup.. z On Sat, Dec 4, 2010 at 12:25 PM, Steve G <[email protected]> wrote: > > This thread's origin is from May 2010...just wondering if anyone has > attempted and successfully got a mapguide server going on AWS.
