AMS 5.0 on Amazon: Fresh install can't get past admin console login

Hi there,

I created a fresh Adobe Media Server 5.0 instance on Amazon EC2 AWS and followed all instructions in this document:

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/configadmin/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d119f2926bcf-7ff4.html

- I added the admin user to ams.ini

- created a user password using ./amsadmin -console -user <username>

- opened all necesarry ports.

- tested port 1111 using telnet successfully

However I still can't login.

I did the ping test using:

<ipaddress>:1111/admin/ping?auser=username&apswd=password

when using an invalid username/password this returns:

<result>

<level>error</level>

<code>NetConnection.Connect.Rejected</code>

<description>Admin user requires valid username and password.</description>

<timestamp>Sun Nov 18 15:02:59 2012</timestamp>

</result>

but with a valid username/password combination it just redirects the page endlessly until the browser stops.

Is there anybody out there who can give me a hint?

    Little strange. But just want to be clear - you tried http command and with valid username/password you are not able to run "ping" http command - right?  Can you juct check your Admin Server configuration and restart Admin server once and see if it helps. Also do you see any errors in logs - say master, admin logs?
