AWS coldfusion2021 with fusionreactor configuration questions.
We are trying to build a coldfusion environment on aws using the AMI. I can't use the quick launch feature so we are using terraform and calling the API. It gets created and I can see coldfusion running on the ec2 instance but it seems like there are loads of things that aren't created in the provisioning.
The current state of what we have done is :
1, Created an ec2 ( ubuntu ) instance and completed the base confgiuration, and verified coldfuion and fusion reactor are running. We can't get to the admin console.
2. An ALB was created to direct traffic to ports 80 and 443 but they aren't running because the ami doesn't install apache/nginx...
We have our own structure for our vpc, alb, route53, and aurora db that we build and all the security groups are created accordingly. The problem is when we go to the route53 address and try to access the ColdFusion administrator it doesn't load. It also doesn't seem to allow the ebs volumes that are supposed to be created by the ami are created. Looking at the documentation there isn't much to go on, or at least i can't find anything that breaks the process down further. I'm trying to figure out the load balancer and target groups. Obviously, there needs to be a load balancer that serves the content, but how is the cf admin interface managed? When we go to a ha cluster and there is more than one server how does the cluster manager work, or how do you access each individual coldfusion server to manage the multiple sub-sites.
Is there any documentation out there that can clarify the process? I have looked hard for any documentation or guide that can help install the product but haven't found anything other than to use the quick launch link from aws marketplace. Does anybody have any insight or guidance to installing coldfusion on aws using Terraform or know a place I can find directions on what else needs to be configured in a sepcific way?
