what should I change if my express runs on the 3001 port?

[@stormit9507]

Hi, you will need to change the port exposed in the Dockerfile as well as the port in the container task. If you require more specific assistance, please feel free to contact us for a consultation at: www.stormit.cloud/contact/

[@azeemshah9501]

Very nice tutorial. Quick question: How can we see Node.js application level logs. Like you have a console.log(). How can we see it?

[@stormit9507]

Hi, thank you for your comment. Please check this documentation from AWS: docs.aws.amazon.com/prescriptive-guidance/latest/implementing-logging-monitoring-cloudwatch/amazon-ecs-logging-monitoring.html or this docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/using_awslogs.html If you still have issues, contact us for a consultation at: www.stormit.cloud/contact/

[@jiahongxie6884]

Thank you so much! May I ask, if my container exposes port 8000. What changes should I make when I am following your tutorial? Should I set port mapping to 8000?

[@stormit9507]

Hello Jiahong, you should expose that in Docker and also set it up in port mappings of a new task definition.

[@ErickCalderin]

It did not work to me, I got an error "ECS Deployment Circuit Breaker was triggered"

[@stormit9507]

Hello Erick, I'm sorry that it isn't working for you. It's hard to determine the specific issue based on the information you provided. I would recommend thoroughly reviewing each step of the manual to ensure everything is correct. And after that, I would attempt to locate relevant logs to review what exactly went wrong. If you're interested, we can arrange a consultation. Please feel free to contact us at: www.stormit.cloud/contact/

[@ErickCalderin]

​@@stormit9507 that is the same question I did, that error message was literally the one I received from AWS after following your steps. Nevertheless, I am trying with a image built and pushed into ECR and weights 2.8 GB. Is this a possible cause of that error? If so, How can I handle with large images in AWS?. Just in case you are wondering why my image is so heavyweight, this is a FastAPI app which downloads a model from HuggingFace and generates embeddings of a data set, it is a process that requires GPU but when I tested this image locally it lasts around 16 minutes with my CPU. In addition, I made this experiment with AppRun and according the logs it was able to pull the image, do some other startup tasks and download the model (CPU) but it stopped in the embedding generation step. So, this is my situation. Hopefully you can help me :)

[@stormit9507]

​@@ErickCalderin your application seems interesting and i don't think this will be an issue of the image size. You are talking about GPU, AWS Fargate basically doesn't have support for GPU, so this could be the issue. Try to read this documentation - docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/ecs-gpu.html You can try utilizing EC2 instances that are optimized for GPU. This might better suit your requirements. As mentioned earlier, it would be easier to assist you if you contacted us directly through our contact form at www.stormit.cloud/contact/.

[@vojtechkaiser2525]

I had the same error. The reason was when I was setting up my image in my task, I didn't give it the right tag! (The part after semicolon in image name - image-name:tag). If you copy the image url from ECR, it will not include the tag. By default it will look for tag called "latest". If you have something else. It will fail. Typically this error indicates that there is something wrong with your task setup or the image itself. One other thing I found online was that someone created the image with docker using Mac with the silicion chip (amd arch) and they tried to run the image on x86_64 architecture.

Hey I am geting this error in the command line while pushing the Docker Image to ECR Repository Get-ECRLoginCommand : The term 'Get-ECRLoginCommand' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

Hi, thank you for your question. Do you have the AWS CLI installed and configured? You can find the installation guide here: docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-install.html You can also contact us for a consultation at: www.stormit.cloud/contact/

How can i get SSL certificate for AWS Fargate app

[@stormit9507]

Hi X Lou, thank you for your comment, but I would need more information. You can contact us for a consultation at www.stormit.cloud/contact/. However, I believe the solution lies in creating a TLS/SSL certificate in AWS Certificate Manager for your domain and using it with an HTTPS listener in ALB.

[@SandWalk]

thank you sir , So i'm alreay deploy my website to Aws Fargate just like your video above , and i see in your video above too, there is no TLS/SSL in you website and mine are also , do you have the video to solve this problem thank you ,i'm already searching but there is only how to get SSL for EC2 and there is no solution for AWS Fargate!

[@stormit9507]

@@SandWalk At the moment, we don't have any videos or articles about HTTPS and AWS Fargate, but I'll make a note of it for the future. As mentioned earlier, if you still have issues with this, please contact us directly via www.stormit.cloud/contact/ for a consultation.
