I am trying to have a self hosted version of appwrite on Amazing EC2 instance.

I am getting error in the installation saying "Failed to connect installer to appwrite network". What am I missing?

Summary

The user is experiencing connectivity issues with Appwrite 2.4.0 on their self-hosted EC2 instance. The support representative is asking for details about the Docker setup, including version, network configurations, and the status of containers. They also want to know if the Appwrite directory existed prior to installation and whether Snap Docker or any management tools like Coolify, Dokploy, or Portainer are being used. There's no direct solution provided yet, as the issue is still being investigated.

I have not been able to reproduce this yet, so I do like to narrow down what’s different on your EC2 host.

Could you share the output of:

Dockerfile

docker info
docker network ls
docker ps -a --format "table {{.Names}}\t{{.Status}}\t{{.Networks}}"```
Also, did the appwrite directory already exist before running the installer, and are you using Snap Docker or anything like Coolify, Dokploy, or Portainer?

Harsh, nothing specific about my EC2 instance, it was just a brand new EC2 with latest version of docker etc. I decomissioned in the instance, will try again
